The question was how to get it working on a non-ChromeOS device and system, and you provided instructions for ChromeOS. I don't believe they'll work, but hey, I can try it. On my self-built desktop, running Ubuntu 17.10, the following result happens: zsh: command not found: google-chrome-stable zsh: command not found: vmc So, again, how do I get any of this running on an actual desktop OS, on a usual computer? You just claimed I can, please provide instructions, or please stop trolling.

I think you missed the "Very easy with ChromeOS 67." this doesn't work in any Chrome browser on any OS

  Yes requires not only chromeOS 67 but also a pixel book and more info available at Google IO this year.

  The question was how to get it working WITHOUT ChromeOS 67, on a normal desktop OS, such as fedora or ubuntu.

    Well then the answer is that you can't. Edit: Why would you expect to be able to use a Chrome OS feature on other operating systems?

      No one's expecting to be able to use it right away. But maybe a Chrome OS (which is a modified Gentoo, after all) feature can be ported to another Linux distro.

With ChromeOS 67 you have gnu/Linux and Android in a container. But only on a pixel book at this point.

  Parent commenters said that they wanted to do the same thing as OP article but on Fedora instead of on Chrome OS. You responded to them with how to do it on Chrome OS which is not what they were looking for. It’s like if you asked me “can I develop iOS apps with Chrome OS on my Chromebook?” and I told you “sure, in macOS on your MacBook just ...”.
