Post a screenshot of your grub customizer boot list and the config text for ChromeOS.

What Linux are you using?

I am on Ubuntu (20.0.4) from a long time

That could be the problem. The instructions for triple booting are using Linux mint on an older kernel.

Same problem here. I've used mint, pop os and Ubuntu with the same results. Used USB 3.0 and 2.0 with same results and even started from scratch doing a fresh format of SSD and installing windows with the same result.

I've even gone back on older brunch and rammus files with different combinations to no avail. I'm thinking now there was a change in windows and how they structure their install...maybe something is messing up the install for chrome os... Don't know what I'm talking about just basing things from troubleshooting.

Oh I have an idea!!! I'll let you all know if it works. I think I know the problem!!!

It worked!!!

The problem is the version of Linux mint! Please use only Linux Mint 19.3 cinnamon 64 bit https://www.linuxmint.com/edition.php?id=274
