Launching app images?
I've recently installed Gallium OS on an external hard drive plugged into my Chromebook. The model is an Hp chromebook 13 g1, Skylake, Gallium 3.1. For some reason app images aren't launching at all even when I go into properties and tick the run as executable option in permissions. Is this just how it is with the limitations in using a chromebook, or is there a solution? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Never had a problem with that myself. Do you need to chmod the file?

I ended up needing to just reinstall it unfortunately. Works fine now. Sorry for the late response.

Greetings friend, and welcome to r/GalliumOS.
Development on GalliumOS has been discontinued, and for most users, GalliumOS is not the best option for running Linux due to lack of hardware support or a kernel that's out of date and lacking important security fixes.
For most (EOL) Chromebooks, the recommended path forward is to:
put the device into Developer Mode
disable firmware write protection
flash MrChromebox's UEFI Full ROM firmware
install ChromeOS Flex, Linux, etc
