I doubt its possible, as you need to use Odin which can only be ran on Windows to flash the rom
 
Go to a friends

Lol. I don't even bother with my friends. I just travel a lot now. I'm just family oriented.

A one-click-root-app, reminds me of the Droid X days.

Such dark days those were lol.

Seems like you're gonna have to wait for your old lady's laptop, or buy one, use it for a day to root, than return it haha.

No, a chomebook is essentially a tablet with a keyboard. It's made for web based tasking only and you cannot run any programs on it. It's a nice piece of hardware, but it's far from a straight up computer.

I don't know Funky - one of the root methods (the one I used) didn't involve writing a new ROM; it just used adb to perform the root. Maybe it's possible to run adb within a Terminal Emulator session and accomplish the same thing? You'd probably have to get in touch with the OP of the exploit to see what he thinks. I'll see if I can dig up the link.

Will this work on SIII Mini?
 
Following the links to the original thread, it says "This will not work on Jellybean." Since I'm sure the Mini is on Jellybean (Android 4.1) or higher, I don't think it will work for you.

Also, in spite of the name, the SIII mini is really a completely different phone than the SIII, so if it works at all there's a pretty fair chance it would break your phone.
