Hello fellow androidcentral-ers (?),
I currently find myself in a situation concerning the discoverability of crosh and chroots.
See, I'm in some kind of 'pilot-class' (as I call it) where everybody got to borrow a dell(candy) chromebook. Honestly it's been pretty useless so far, even my frickin' 3ds is capable doing more (useful) things.
To make the device (waaaaay) more useful I followed a guide on how to install a chroot on the device. After a month or two my kickass computer-science teacher gave me and my friends a heads-up that some unknown so-called 'chromebook hackers' were wanted for being a serious risk to schools administration-security. I myself believe that that would complete bollocks, but as the good (and cautious) boy I am, I informed my friends to delete the chroot and disable dev-mode, as I did so myself.
Now, about 6 months later after the dispute, there's no sign of us being wanted anymore and I'm still bummed about how useless the device is. I was wondering how discoverable chroot, and chromeos's crosh terminal itself is (would it even be possible for the ICT guys to see us excecuting commands?).
I'm obviously no chrome-expert and this is were you guys come in.
I am not interested in installing a chroot anymore, just java via crosh. This however requires dev-mode and I'm afraid that I'll be discovered again. It could just as well be that some kid told the ICT 'bout us.
So what'cha guys think?
Awaiting your responses, David
PS: Some of the device's functions are monitored by the ICT, but are only account-bound (if I were to log-in onto my own Google-account, the monotization is gone).
