CHROMEBOX locked up

A power down and back up again brought the "green screen of death".

An "old" recovery usb drive was applied. But it appeared to end in failure.

A restart makes it appear to work.

When I went to my windoze box to get an up to date recovery image for the usb, the download has v2 in the name.

When I run it, it prompts for "the model number of my Chrome OS device". I don't know it.

Argh!

This is supposed to be brain dead simple. It ain't.

Not ready for prime time.

Wonder if I can put UBUNTU on the CHROMEBOX and CHROMEBOOK?

Argh!
