The Dell Chromebook 13" 7310 (Lulu model) makes for a nice chromebook, and the first thing we want to do is install Ubuntu on it. Don’t rush to Dell website: it’s out of production. Only student versions are available now Legacy boot It is not necessary to remove the write-protect switch to boot Linux on this device. I will give here for reference some instructions on the procedure I followed. First step is to switch the chromebook to developer mode; you can use for this. All steps including “Enabling SeaBIOS” should be followed, but do not reboot the machine yet. Arch Linux’ documentation Flashing the right SeaBIOS To install SeaBIOS on this model I used the script provided by John Lewis, you can find documentation and instructions here*: https://johnlewis.ie/custom-chromebook-firmware/rom-download/ The matrix there confirms that for this model it is not necessary to remove the write-protect switch, since RW_LEGACY mode is supported. *= Please donate to the author to support his work, we would not be here enjoying Ubuntu on this device otherwise. You can download and check the script to see what it does; it will detect the model and then download the right ROM file and offer you options to install it on the RW_LEGACY slot of the disk. Run this script (after reading/changing it if you like) on the chromebook root shell started at previous step; once it has completed, congratulations, you now have unlocked a working SeaBIOS for your device! gfxboot problems After flashing an Ubuntu 16 installer ISO (desktop or server) to an USB device and booting with Ctrl+L you will unfortunately be blocked by the dreadful gfxboot error: graphics initialization failledError setting up gfxbootboot: You can read online many desperate calls to write and get going to next stage, but that is not helpful nowadays. The bug is explained in detail at the . “help” upstream Launchpad issue here Basically this means that the bootloader stage cannot setup a valid video mode, but bear in mind: this is just the bootloader, not the actual installer. FAT boot (netboot) The easiest solution would have been to change the isolinux.cfg file so that it would pick the first entry (installer) and do not bother displaying a menu, however that proved to be a dead end as I was not successful in modifying the ISO and flashing it again as bootable. I decided to change approach and try a FAT boot disk from USB, which is commonly referred to as / for Debian/Ubuntu. netboot boot.img.gz You can download the Ubuntu netboot image from the alternate downloads section: _Edit description_archive.ubuntu.com Index of /ubuntu/dists/xenial-updates/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot This image is a plain FAT16 partition with a bootable MBR, so no partition table in there. It was probably created with (could not find instructions online about how Debian/Ubuntu actually creates it) and I was not able to create a larger one from scratch (you will see later why this matters). makeboot You can flash the image to the correct USB device with: gunzip < boot.img.gz | dd of=/dev/sdX bs=16M Replace /dev/sdX with the actual USB mass storage device (try to not flash your main disk in this process). Intel Wireless network The netboot image will nicely boot and allow us to reach the textual installer, however you will soon realize that the wireless network interface is not recognized. This seems to be due to a single module missing, . iwlmvm Just copying the iwlmvm.ko from the linux-image-extra package inside the initrd will not work, because the kernel symbols do not match; also, adding all the modules from linux-image-extra is not an option because of size constraints (the boot.img is quite small), so I had to patch the existing initrd with the following procedure: create a list of all the module files already present inside the initrd copy such modules and (renamed as simply linux) from boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0–101-generic http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/linux-image-4.4.0-101-generic_4.4.0-101.124_amd64.deb copy the missing iwlmvm.ko from http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/linux-image-extra-4.4.0-101-generic_4.4.0-101.124_amd64.deb put all the copied files (except the kernel) inside the initrd.gz (I removed other unused modules in the process to free up some space) linux copy the kernel ( ) and the updated initrd.gz on the mounted boot.img /linux While I was at it I also fixed the line to use the correct value for the chromebook’s display, which is 0x340. vga= Success The end result is that the installer boots flawlessly, you will receive a network not detected error and then you have to go back to the installation menu and choose “Execute a shell”. From the prompt, simply run: almost # rmmod iwlwifi# modprobe iwlwifi# exit And continue the installation after finally being able to configure wireless network. First boot After completing the installation you will not see the GRUB boot menu; re-use the boot image to enter the root partition in rescue mode (it will setup a chroot), enable the line in and then run . GRUB_TERMINAL=console /etc/default/grub update-grub While you’re at it, you can copy from the installer environment into your new root filesystem so that on next boot the wireless network will be configured as well. /etc/network/interfaces The boot image You can repeat the steps above yourself to fix the boot image or download the files I changed from : this gist The most important files are and ; mount the USB storage as you would regularly (Ubuntu will allow you to do this without issues even from GUI) and overwrite the files in it with those provided in the gist. linux initrd.gz

Had a weird nights sleep. I was wide awake at 4:30AM ready to get my day started. Eventually dozed back off and awoke at a normal hour, 6:25. Got myself ready for the day. Prepared for all the weather combos but the weather just doesn’t make sense. Coffee & breakfast tacos at Jo’s Coffee which is the new love of my life. (Side note: they serve frosé — which means I’ll likely be back.) On to the convention center for my first sessions. Opening remarks by — then a seriously BRILLIANT keynote from . I was inspired to do more and ultimately he made me cry but it was such a good a start to the day. Hugh Forrest Cory Booker Left this session and came across a line for — the line was insane it spanned floors so I decided to move on. (More on that later…) Gary Vaynerchuk Popped into the house. They were doing mimosas and VR but I ended up with some fancy seltzer. Left and went next door to a place that gave me some delish lunch. DELL Next up was the grill. They know how to put on a great event. Samsung was also in the house and the came with limes — and were 😋 Fast Company Dos Equis I only spent a few minutes at Fast Company before heading off to to listen to an excellent talk on design culture. It was an amazing learning experience in a beautifully curated environment that had the topo chico flowing. ONE Design Ran into this cute guy on the street. After leaving Capital One I ventured up to Sixth Street. Went to the house which was a really cool space. But ruined by dudebros (a common theme of sxsw) Mashable Attempted to visit but the line was insane so I went back to the convention center to visit the social lounge. NatGeo Further Comcast Careers Comcast lounge was seriously on point. Snacks, drinks, long tables with plugs, Nick Offerman & just happened to be speaking while I stopped by. Not to mention they came through with soft pretzels like a real Philadelphia company. Gary Vaynerchuk I guess I ran into some sort of Handmaid’s Tale promotion. It honestly creeped me out. Ended up walking down Rainey Street to preview some of the big brands activating tomorrow (Facebook, Twitter, CNN, ) and I stopped buy the AI lounge which was fantastic. The AI they were showcasing was seriously so amazing. It was next level. Pinterest Intel After that my feet were killing me but I promised to stop by the Comcast / NBC party which was a lot of fun. I met some great people there. Returned to hotel to eat a peanut butter cup that’s been in the fridge all day and rest my weary legs.

Whenever I write scaling or growth case studies, I usually find myself writing about high-growth, venture-backed startups. We tend to focus on companies that do things differently, differentiate themselves, and innovate by means of blitz scaling, growth hacking, and agility. However, it would be ignorant not to look at corporate giants. They, too, innovate at times and try new things in new ways that allow them to radically improve the way that they’ve been doing business through subtle changes in their day-to-day operations or strategy. Lessons we can learn from large organizations can be important because they have access to things that many smaller organizations don’t. And no — I’m not talking about resources. I’m talking about scale. Learning From Giants When a company like Dell (DELL — NYSE), with revenues averaging $92B dollars (2020) per year, tries something new. We can study and digest and immediately see the positive (or negative) results of a sales campaign or strategy because when it’s implemented, it immediately affects millions of customers globally. Today we’re talking about meeting your customers where they are and how Dell leveraged this idea to generate an average of $256K in weekly revenue. Press 1 For English Dell, like most large organizations, had complicated processes and intricate systems. They had call centers filled with hundreds of agents, chat, phone, and email that allowed their customers to contact them, open tickets, and have their computer questions and technical difficulties rectified. I don’t know about you, but regardless of whether you’ve called Dell before or other companies of similar size, you know that customer success/service, sales, or technical support at an organization of this size, is usually a labyrinth of voice prompts, different departments, misdirects, transfers, gray hairs, swearing and massive amounts of frustration. Most large companies don’t do anything to change this, and most customers accept this as the status quo. Dell realized that this experience was less than optimal (putting it lightly) for their customers, and they decided to switch things up. Dell directly went where their customers are . Social media. Meet Customers Where They’re At They realized that customers felt more comfortable chatting on forums that they were comfortable with, rather than submitting tickets or making calls with Dell’s internal sales and support mediums. They offered technical support directly through their social media pages by responding to customer concerns. They monitored for customer tweets and replied directly on Twitter and through direct messages. According to , Social Media Outreach Manager: Amy Marquez Bivin “ 98 percent of customer issues responded to through @DellCares are resolved without customers needing to work with an agent and 85 percent of social-media-assisted customers with negative initial opinions of Dell reported a positive opinion following the support experience.” What was the result of a relatively low-cost & simple customer-focused strategy? Customers were easily able to have basic concerns and questions answered quickly — on platforms they were already on. Dell mapped back an average of $265,000 in additional weekly revenue tied directly to disgruntled customers who had their questions/problems solved through social media as part of this initiative. Lessons Learned There are a few lessons we can learn from Dell’s social strategy. Meet your customers where they’re at. This seems to be a recurring theme (hint hint). Just like what we saw with Airbnb last week, Dell realized that forcing customers to adapt to their own platform, wasn’t the best idea. They realized that to provide the best possible customer experience; you need to make support as frictionless as possible. This meant heading to social media. The lesson you should take away from this is that, regardless of what you’re selling, meet customers wherever they want to engage with you. If you’re wondering how to do this, encourage your employees to engage with customers on all channels, and empower them to actually help customers. Give autonomy to agents monitoring social to fix things, credit things, reimburse things so that the customer’s first interaction with your brand, on their chosen social network, is as pleasant as possible. Funneling customers to certain mediums, and restricting front-line agents, is a perfect way to anger customers and lose them permanently… faster than you can say “unsubscribe”. Just because it’s always been done a certain way… This one’s more for the exec team in large organizations. There is a lot, that you’ve been doing for a long time.. that you really shouldn’t be doing anymore. Times change, but it seems like some organizations are frozen in time. If you’re reading this, and you’re thinking… is that me? Maybe it’s a good time to take a look in your organization, take stock of what you’re doing, and then look at that are disrupting your industry. There’s a good chance that they’re doing something a little different from you. Unicorns And trust me, I sympathize. I know how difficult it is to change the way you do things within a large organization; however, all it takes is a strong vision from the top down, a focus on attracting new talent, and constant steps towards improving and optimizing the way you do business both internally and externally in 2021+. If you are in this position, I’d advise you to look into the work of Salim Ismail and pick up a copy of his book, . He studies, teaches, and speaks on how to modernize large organizations to compete with disruptive, more agile organizations.
