The last few weeks I have added and removed a zillion chroots and even have one chroot that can't be deleted.\r\n\r\nIs there any way for me to recover my chromebook to a pristine manufacturer state?  If I have to do that with a flash card can I get one from google or somewhere else?  Should I contact service?  I know this is more of a chromebook question than crouton but I thought people here would understand what crouton can do to a chromebook.\r\n\r\nThe reason I want it pristine is that I have been trying to fix the keyboard target on my machine (#1558) by going back to cleaner and cleaner installs.  I've done as much as I can by installing clean chroots.\r\n\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/dnschneid/crouton/issues/comments/89057578","html_url":"https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton/issues/1570#issuecomment-89057578","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/dnschneid/crouton/issues/1570","id":89057578,"user":{"login":"mark-hahn","id":811455,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/811455?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn","html_url":"https://github.com/mark-hahn","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-04-02T21:59:24Z","updated_at":"2015-04-02T21:59:24Z","body":"> Have you tried logging in as root from the Dev Console (tty2) via\nCtrl+Alt+F2 after a reboot\n\nAh, the black frecon screen.
