Instructions for install openwrt onto an OnHub
- download Recovery image (from https://dl.google.com/dl/edgedl/chromeos/recovery/chromeos_9334.41.3_whirlwind_recovery_stable-channel_mp.bin.zip)
- store this zip somewhere permanent in case google removes the download links
- flash to usb drive (ask bnorris for command, for when google removes support for the tool?). Maybe use Etcher https://www.balena.io/etcher/?
- enable developer mode https://www.exploitee.rs/index.php/Rooting_The_Google_OnHub#:~:text=Enabling%20%22Developer%20Mode%22%20on%20the%20OnHub,-Make%20sure%20your&text=Hold%20down%20the%20reset%20switch,careful%20as%20it's%20extremely%20delicate.)&text=After%20the%20LED%20starts%20blinking,should%20now%20start%20blinking%20purple.
