Installation
See Chrome OS devices page.

Audio
There are reports of people damaging the speakers while tinkering with audio stuff on various Chromebooks. This includes ARM ones, but those are ported and tested per-device to be safe. Although this generic port doesn't add any configuration beyond what upstream projects do, those upstream configurations may or may not be safe to run on your specific device.

Suspend
Suspending the device makes the firmware go into recovery mode, and disables booting from external devices or with alternative firmware. This is because a TPM involved in the boot flow must be informed that the OS has booted OK. The kernel drivers that do this have not been enabled yet, enabling them fixes the issue.
