The gui installer was roughly about as simple as any other distro I’ve tried, and stuff generally seemed to work out of the box. There are more packages than one might expect from such a small distro too. Not sure I have any advice specific to Void really, although getting a custom bootloader onto a Chromebook was certainly a trip lol
Void, because it works really well on my super low-resource chromebook!
any advice for trying void? Ive heard good things but never really gave it a chance.

I love cheap Chromebooks for this!! Getting custom bootloader onto them is kinda fun for me atp because I’ve done so many.
The handbook is outstanding. Read as much of it as you can. Even if you’re not a Void user, you’ll learn so much!
