How to install Ravenfield on a Chromebook


Today we are looking at how to install Ravenfield on a Chromebook.  Please follow the video/audio guide as a tutorial where we explain the process step by step and use the commands below.

In this tutorial, we enable Linux Apps first on our system, then we download the Linux installer, link below,  then we run the commands below in a terminal session.  The first command will extract the installation package, then we will move into the folder of the extracted installation package.  After that, we will make the game executable, then we install a menu editor and lastly make a menu entry with the command, being the game which we made executable.  Enjoy!

Please take note that with the release of Chrome OS 90,  the location of Linux Apps has been changed in the Chromebook’s settings.  Have a look at this tutorial, to see how to turn on Linux apps and then continue with the installation tutorial.

Update:  In Chrome OS 83 Linux Apps has an option now, not seen in this video as it was recorded before Chrome OS 83, to choose a username for your Linux Apps,  it is completely optional and you can just press on the install option to continue, as seen in the video.  Please send us a comment on YouTube if you need assistance!
