Dual booting ubuntu on chromebook

JanWillemNies

Hello everyone,

Im trying to dual boot linux on my chromebook. I have an acer chromebook 15 CB3-532.

I followed this guide: https://www.linux.com/learn/how-easily-install-ubuntu-chromebook-crouton

However when i come to the part where you type:

sudo startkde

it starts for a brief moment, then the screen turns black and it says:

'Cannot call D-bus. Can you call d-bus?' and there is 1 button i can press that says 'okay' and then it exits back to chrome os.

Then this is the text that appears in the chrome os terminal:

chronos@localhost / $ sudo startkde
Entering /mnt/stateful_partition/crouton/chroots/precise...
Failed to start message bus: Failed to open "/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/dbus_contexts": No such file or directory

Can anyone help me fix this issue?

Thanks! Jan Willem

You could just try to get into the chroot and then do some updates to see if that fixes some of the above package problems/errors. Try -

sudo enter-chroot

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install -f

sudo apt-get upgrade

exit

Then maybe try your startkde command again.
