chromebook刷机

Chromebooks have always been great if you can do your work with web apps (and now Android and Linux apps). But most people still find themselves keeping a separate Windows machine for specific tasks. That might change soon.

如果您可以使用网络应用程序(以及现在的Android和Linux应用程序)进行工作，Chromebook一直以来都是很棒的。但是大多数人仍然发现自己要为特定任务保留一台单独的Windows计算机。那可能很快就会改变。

The “AltOS” feature first started appearing in Chrome OS commits back in April. Those first commits revealed Windows support, leading us to believe that Google intended to let users boot both Windows and Chrome OS on the same machine. All of the commits so far reference “Eve”, the codename for the Pixelbook’s motherboard.

最早开始出现在Chrome操作系统中的“ AltOS”功能于4月提交。这些最初的承诺揭示了Windows对Windows的支持，这使我们相信Google打算让用户在同一台计算机上同时启动Windows和Chrome OS。到目前为止，所有提交均引用“ Eve”，即Pixelbook主板的代号。

The next round of commits showed up in September. This gave us the icon that may be used when the Chromebook boots to a different OS, as well as some of the keyboard combinations users will have to press to boot to the alternate OS. There’s no telling if these key combos are just for Google’s internal testing, or if it will survive until the feature is on consumer devices.

下一轮提交在9月出现。这为我们提供了Chromebook引导至其他操作系统时可以使用的图标，以及用户必须按下才能启动备用操作系统的某些键盘组合。无法确定这些关键组合是否仅用于Google的内部测试，或者直到该功能在消费类设备上都能使用。

That brings us to today. Google appears to be continuing its work on letting Chromebook users install Windows 10 right alongside Chrome OS. There appear to be some caveats, of course, the main one being storage. About Chromebooks’ Kevin Tofel states that Chromebooks will likely need at least 40 GB of free storage to dual boot Windows, because Windows needs room for the OS itself and space to download updates. This excludes most Chromebooks under $500 since the machine will need to ship with 64 GB or more of internal storage at the very least.

那把我们带到了今天。 Google似乎正在继续努力，让Chromebook用户在Chrome操作系统旁边安装Windows 10。当然，似乎有一些警告，主要是存储。 关于Chromebook的 Kevin Tofel指出，Chromebook至少需要40 GB的免费存储空间才能双启动Windows，因为Windows需要操作系统本身的空间和下载更新的空间。这不包括价格低于500美元的大多数Chromebook，因为该计算机至少需要配备64 GB或更多的内部存储空间。

The latest round of commits also mentions how the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) will handle multiple operating systems without compromising security, though there isn’t any real user-facing information just yet. This isn’t something the end user really needs to care about anyway, but they’re critical steps in making sure Dual-Boot will work properly and securely.

最新一轮提交还提到了可信平台模块(TPM)将如何在不损害安全性的情况下处理多个操作系统，尽管目前还没有任何面向用户的真实信息。无论如何，最终用户并不需要真正关心这些内容，但是它们是确保Dual-Boot正确且安全地工作的关键步骤。

Right now, it appears Google is still only testing this feature—codenamed “Campfire” and likely to be officially named “Dual-Boot”—on the Pixelbook. There’s a precedent for new features coming to Google’s own devices first. Google has offered other features like Google Assistant integration on the Pixelbook before making it available to other Chromebooks.

目前，看来Google仍在Pixelbook上仅测试此功能(代号为“ Campfire”，可能被正式命名为“双启动”)。 Google自己的设备首先具有新功能的先例。 Google还在Pixelbook上提供了其他功能，例如Google Assistant集成，然后将其提供给其他Chromebook。

Of course, you may have been able to dual-boot Windows and Chrome OS in the past, but it was hacky at best and involved installing custom firmware. This newer method will presumably just require a toggle in the Settings menu.

当然，您过去可能曾经能够双重启动Windows和Chrome操作系统，但充其量是很棘手的事情，涉及安装自定义固件。这种较新的方法大概只需要在“设置”菜单中进行切换即可。

While we should see dual-booting with Windows come to the Pixelbook soon, there’s no telling when (or if) the feature will come to other Chromebooks. When Android and Linux app support rolled out, some reasonably modern Chromebooks didn’t get those because they used an old kernel version. There’s a chance the same thing will happen when it comes to Windows support.

虽然我们应该很快看到Windows双重启动进入Pixelbook，但是并没有告诉您该功能何时(或是否)将适用于其他Chromebook。推出Android和Linux应用程序支持后，一些相当现代的Chromebook 却无法使用，因为它们使用的是旧的内核版本。当涉及到Windows支持时，可能会发生同样的事情。
