Problem: The USB won't boot at all.

When not to use Chrome OS Flex

• If you rely on native Windows/macOS apps that lack web equivalents.
• If specific hardware peripherals lack Linux/Chrome OS drivers.
• For gaming or resource‑intensive local workflows.

• Bad: Very old AMD processors (pre-2018). Realtek Wi-Fi chips (often fail to connect).
• Ugly: Older Macs (MacBook Air 2012-2015 works great; 2016+ MacBooks with T2 chips have audio issues).
