Known issues
- Only supports Raspberry Pi 4B & Pi 400 - images for the Raspberry Pi 3 series are released separately.
- No support for OS sleep, or it'd result in a non-recoverable state. Therefore it's necessary to install Keep Awake extension and always set it to Sunny Mode.
- The CJK IMEs are basic browser extensions that come with vanilla Chromium OS, not the ones shipped with Chrome OS. It's advisable to use Google Input Tools extension.
- The initial boot time takes longer, this is expected.
- To enable Linux(beta) you'll need at least 2GB of RAM and 16GB of microSD capacity. It's only been tested on Raspberry Pi 4B with 4BG RAM.
- Hardware-accelerated graphics for Linux(beta) (virgl) isn't supported yet.
- Dropped "forced kiosk mode" support for compatibility reasons. If you happen to need kiosk mode for your project, try r89 release.
