I did this with a Lenovo N42-20. Worked really well, I got a usable Debian machine with Xfce and great battery life.

My whole goal is to just have a browsing machine. My main laptop is four years old (same age as the Chromebook, actually), but the battery has degraded to the point that I’m lucky to get a half-hour not being plugged in. Given the storage limitations, even VLC would be an extravagance, so I was just looking to do a somewhat slim install that gets me Firefox. I’d love to do KDE Neon, but that’s a bit overkill for a single-app use case.
