I like your video but there is something you mentioned on your video that is incorrect. For example, if you have an apple mac device that isn't upgradeable to the latest mac OS release, apple WILL provide 2 additional years of security updates to the prior OS release. I own a 2013 MacBook air that only was updated to Big Sur. Its still being used and will get one more year of security updates. Once this last period of updates ends I plan on installing chrome OS Flex to extend its life. For iOS devices apple usually forces people onto the next version of iOS to maintain up-to-date security; although, on occasion apple might issue an out of the blue update especially if its crucial to the usability of an older iDevice.

Will it work on a 2006 Black MacBook Intel T7200 / 3 GB of RAM?

Hi there. Were you able to turn on the backlit function on the keyboard? I'm running FlexOS on my 2012 Macbook Air and can't figure out how to get the backlit function to work.

My 2017 MacBook Air doesn't detect any wireless networks when setting up Chrome OS. What should I do to fix the connection problems? I cannot set up Chrome OS without some sort of connection to the internet.

Please help me out

In newer Macs, it won't work. Will chromeos flex run on an old Mac running new macOS?

I followed all the steps but after pressing EFI boot, a black screen appears and nothing is happening further. I have kept it for more than 2 hours.

I installed chrome os flex and it worked perfectly. I decided later I wanted to change and go back and install Monterrey. I am having trouble installing Monterrey. How do I uninstall chrome os flex? Thanks!

I got Flex to work on my MB 2008 Unity. Slow AF, but it's alright.

Also if you have an Android phone apparently you can send and receive texts from your chromebook.

Sadly my iMac 21.5in (10.1) isn't listed. I've tried flex on it and the graphics bug out causing the OS to basically reset itself.
