→What type of CPU do I have?
Oscar has several versions, and you need to select the correct version to work with the CPU in your Chromebook. If you have enabled Linux(Beta), then the next stage in the installation process is to learn which kind of CPU your ChromeBook uses.
To do this:
*Open the browser, and type chrome://system version and press enter*Search <!-- "Search" implies you're using You will see a list of headings in Bold type foolowed by a software search tool - is this colon, on the case? If not use "Look for" -->for left hand side of the term "uname"page. *To the right of uname, you that there will see text be lots of information about Chrome and Chrome OS*Look for the left side heading '''User Agent:''' * to the right of that tells you what type of CPU you have. this there will likely be AMD, a line in normal font that looks like *Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS aarch64 12871.67.0) or Intel, or you may see *Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS x86_64 12871.67.0)*We are interested in whether your ChromeBook says aarch64 or ARMv8.x86_64 on that first line after CrOS*If you see Intel or AMDx86_64, then you will need the Oscar package with '''amd64''' in its name (see next section), or*If you see aarch64 or ARMv8, then you will need the Oscar package with '''arm64''' in its name.
