Chrome OS?

[sLider72jr]

Hello Emucoach! It's been a while since I've been on. But I had a weird question I wanted to ask.

Will the 4.3.4 work on a Chrome OS?

I've been thinking about getting one to help with different work projects and I would be interested if there is a way to get Cata to run on one.

You might want to clarify your question a little more, given the root purpose of this forum. Are you wanting to run the server architecture, the game client, or both on your machine?

To start with, there isn't any native client created for Chrome OS, so the short answer is - No.

The longer answer is, theoretically, yes. (Assuming your computer is powerful enough), You could technically enable Linux within your Chrome OS then, with that, install WINE. With WINE running, you can try to run either of the applications (the client and/or server (stuff)).
If you are wanting to run the server on Chrome OS as more of a long-term thing, you can also look into installing MySQL and Apache natively with the Linux subsystem to add better stability and overall performance to the system.


( I don't do much work with Linux myself, so I can't really offer much support if you are wanting to go down this rabbit hole. I will help as much as I can, though, with any questions you may have.)

Jenniy is right in the latest version of chrome os you with linux console integrated with chrome os.
With wine but not sure if it will work. I'm not sure if it will work because it's chrome os and not the same port.
Try installing galliumos. https://galliumos.org/
It's a linux that is made for chromebook. See if your processor is compatible.

Thanks for the information! I wasn't too serious with the topic, it was just a passing thought I had.
