This will be a step by step guide on exactly how I installed box86 on my Acer Spin 513 equipped with a Snapdragon 7C. This guide should work for several other Snapdragon Chromebooks, though YMMV. Mediatek devices will follow a similar setup, but you will compile the Rockchip (RK3399 or similar) version instead of SD845. Now on with the show:

It's tempting to immediately create a new Crostini container, but that's actually not what we need here just yet. You see, box86 relies on something called binfmt-support in order to work. Inside Crostini, this means creating a "privileged" lxc container. You may want to have a separate container just for running x86 applications in; for this guide, I'll be using one called "x86" for
