codebuilds: install apparently worked on dell chromebook 13 (7310), but can't find how to launch code-oss

I did eventually manage to install, which took some time and research. Since I had restored the OS into debug mode, I had to modify the chroot password before the VS code installation worked.

I suspect something is wrong with the install, or possibly I just can’t figure out how to launch VS code.

I’ve opened chroot, opened a shell, sudo bash, and then did a find / -iname code-oss\* without luck. I saw one directory named /mnt/stateful_partition/crouton/chroots/code-oss-chroot.

Any guidance on what I might have done wrong?

How to I bring visual studio code into my chromebook : by applying command from chromebook.sh : Before, I delete chroot with sudo edit-chroot -d code-oss-chroot

sudo sh ./crouton -t xiwi -a armhf -n code-oss-chroot;

sudo enter-chroot -n code-oss-chroot sudo -S sh -c "$( curl -s https://code.headmelted.com/installers/apt.sh )";

sudo echo "alias code=\"sudo startxiwi -n code-oss-chroot code-oss \"" >> ~/.bashrc;

. ~/.bashrc;

VOILA
