live-custom-ubuntu-from-scratch VS crouton

This repo has information on how to create a squashFS https://github.com/mvallim/live-custom-ubuntu-from-scratch but you'll have to store it on nfs, smb, or something for pxe to be able to boot it.

E.g https://mvallim.github.io/live-custom-ubuntu-from-scratch/

No promises though - I can point you to this, we got a lot of tips from this repo: https://github.com/mvallim/live-custom-ubuntu-from-scratch

These pages should help you build a custom system based on Ubuntu that is good to begin with, dive into the process. https://github.com/mvallim/live-custom-ubuntu-from-scratchhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization

I'm guessing GP means natively, not in a VM. I've been super grateful for the VM-based method, but I still prefer the native experience like that provided by Crouton[1]. With Crouton being "maintenance-only" now I share GP's hope that a similar thing will be possible and easy.

One way to install Crouton

Go to the github of crouton they have instructions there https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton

At any rate, you can try Breath, Crouton, Manjaro... those are three of the distros people have found success with. It all boils down to the specific hardware involved... which we know nothing about since you kept that to yourself.

Post in r/crouton and refer to https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton if you haven't already. However, I think it's fair to say that Crouton is now broken to the point of being effectively dead.
