Not sure anymore. I recall installing Crouton on a previous Chromebook, but not my current. Perhaps Crouton - or the like - got subsumed in the over all execution path initiated by double clicking on the "Terminal" app icon...?

So I had a chromebook once (and regret selling it, it was a great device) and I vaguely recall having some of the issues you describe.

I got around it by installing linux onto an sd card, and booting the sdcard. At the time, this was a new thing since Tegra graphics werent in the mainline kernel yet, and it was really fun/inspiring watching and interacting with a keen developer who brought the fire to the people.

Maybe also a solution for you:
