You need a desktop or laptop that supports UEFI and a USB stick.I have prepared links for you to download the necessary files.
The first is Linux Mint, a pretty and compact Linux operating system.Rufus software to burn Linux Mint ISO file to a USB stick or you can use any software (like Ventoy,etc)
Next you need to download the official Chrome OS image file.There are a lot of image files here, so scroll down and find an image file called rammus (! Important ).
Depending on when you download there will be newer versions,Of course I recommend using the latest version for a better experience
Next, with the help of the Brunch file, you can install Chrome OS on your computer.After I get the required 4 files, I will write the Linux Mint ISO file to the USB stick
After each step I will delete the files to make it easier to follow the next steps
The files you download are all compressed so you need to decompress them.You need to create a folder called Chrome OS to store the remaining files.
The first is the files after decompressing the Brunch, consisting of 4 individual files,I've finished the Brunch archive so I'll put it in the trash.
Next you extract the Chrome OS file,The default name will be very long, so you rename it to rammus.bin
Then copy and paste the resulting file into the ChromeOS folder
Don't forget to add the last file containing the commands
Finally in the Chrome OS folder there will be a total of 6 files
Now you move all the Chrome OS folders to the USB drive in the previous step
So we have a USB stick to install Chrome OS, so how to install it
Please follow the next step
You plug the USB stick obtained in the previous step into the target computer
Each manufacturer will have a different way of accessing the BIOS and setting the boot order, in this video I use a Dell computer

You choose to boot UEFI on the target computer
Linux Mint OS is already built into the USB stick so you don't need to install it
You run Linux Mint operating system directly on a USB stick without installation
To install you need a connection to the internet, here I use a wireless network connection
Next, navigate to the Chrome OS folder created in the previous step
You open File System and then open cd rom
In the cdrom folder are all the files on your USB stick
You will find the folder you prepared in the previous step called ChromeOS
In this folder there are all 6 files
You open the text file you contain 4 commands as above
Next you open the command window, copy and paste the above 4 commands one by one as I am doing
The first command is to update the operating system
The second command is to install pv
The third command is to install cgpt
You will be warned that the data on the hard drive will be lost, so you need to back them up before installing Chrome OS
You enter yes to delete the current data on the hard drive and install the Chrome operating system on it
It will take a few minutes to complete
When you receive the completion message, turn off the target computer
You remove the USB stick from the target computer and turn on the computer again
Here you adjust the UEFI boot
If you start Legacy, the computer will give an error
The screen that appears Chrome OS means you have succeeded
You go through the steps for the initial setup of Chrome OS
You connect your computer to the Internet, agreeing to Google's terms
To use Chrome OS, it is indispensable for a Google account that almost everyone has
With Chrome OS you can access Play App Store in Chrome App Store
With these two application stores you will have a great experience with the power of your computer
