Chromebook-VM
Initial Setup
You need a github account for this.
1. First go to https://gitpod.io and sign in with github (or sign into github and use codespaces instead)
2. Then make a workspace with a new repo (perferably an existing one in your github account.)
Now follow the instructions below.
In the terminal paste the stuff below
Copy and paste this line in the terminal (you can use any linux image i think, ie: archlinux):
docker pull ubuntu latest
docker run --rm -d -p 3443:80 -v $PWD:/workspace:rw -e USER=username -e PASSWORD=password -e RESOLUTION=1366x650 --name ubuntu-novnc4 ubuntu:latest
OR
docker pull fredblgr/ubuntu-novnc
docker run --rm -d -p 6080:80 -v $PWD:/workspace:rw -e USER=username -e PASSWORD=password -e RESOLUTION=1680x1050 --name ubuntu-novnc fredblgr/ubuntu-novnc:20.04
Although this is unmaintained it still works i guess
Then click on "Open Window" as seen in this image
and ur done
For Ubuntu/Linux Beginners
First you want to install everything needed.
Copy these lines:
sudo echo "i am a loser" > loser.txt
sudo nano /etc/rc.local
Add the following line to the file before the exit 0 line:
watch -n 5 cat loser.txt &
save n exit
thats it
Conlusion:
