3SoftwareThis chapter details the supported operating systems along with instructions on how to install the drivers.Topics: Operating system View system informationOperating systemThis page contains information about the operating system used by the Dell Chromebook 3100.Chrome OSChromebooks are powered by the Google Chrome operating system, based on Google's popular Chrome browser. It has been developed toprovide a fast, simple, and more secure computing experience for users who spend most of their time online.Key Benefits Speed Simplicity Security Updatability Syncronisability High power at low cost Easy to learn and useSoftware15

Documents, calendar, e-mail, contacts, and tasks available online and offline, and all securely backed-up and synchronised in the cloud. Access to the Chrome web app store Killer web apps The latest Intel Core processors Fun games Built-in support for popular file types and external devicesFor more information about the Chrome OS, please visit the Chrome OS training page.Verified BootRead Only firmware verifies the integrity of Read/Write (R/W) firmware. R/W firmware verifies the active Linux kernel. During run time,the kernel verifies each block read from disk.If a verification step fails and there is no backup option, the machine enters recovery mode.The Developer Mode switch turns off verified boot (at the Kernel stage) to enable users to run Chromium OS (or other OS). The BIOS isalways verified.16Software

Disk Partition MapThere are two copies of Chrome OS on disk: an active copy and a backup copy. Each copy consists of a kernel partition and a root filesystem. The backup copy is updated automatically in the background. Users only need to reboot. The partition contains encrypted userdata and is also used in the factory for storing test software.Software17

Developer and Recovery modeTable 20. Developer and Recovery modeDeveloper ModeRecovery Mode Used to boot without verification.Can be turned on via key combination during boot.Stateful partition is wiped during transitions.Used in the factory to boot test image. Allows a user to reinstall the Chrome OS from a USB key or SDcard.Recovery mode is entered if verified boot fails.A user can force recovery mode via a key combination duringboot.Coreboot and U-boot Custom FirmwareCoreboot (x86 only) Memory and chipset initialization Open-source, except for MRC binary from Intel.U-Boot Performs verified boot Handles recovery and Developer Mode Open source codeNormal boot is very fast, as it takes less than 1 second to start loading kernel. Chromebook does not boot other operating systems such asWindows or OS X.18Software

Chrome vs Chromium OSTable 21. Difference between Chromium and Chrome OSDifference between Chromium and Chrome OSChromium OSChrome OS Is an open source project: http://www.chromium.org/chromium-osRuns on regular PCs and Chrome devices Is based on Chromium OSOnly runs on the Chrome devices with required hardwarefeatures (TPM, RO firmware, recovery button, developerswitch).Includes additional licensed features such as the Netflix plugin,video codecs, and fontsView system informationThis page contains all the information about viewing system information for the Dell Chromebook.Dell Chromebook does not support Dell BIOS.
