I have a Chromebook that I would like to install Ubuntu on. I previously had GalliumOS on it, but for several reasons, I choose not to use it. I then installed full Ubuntu on the laptop, leaving only a little more than a gb of free space left on the device.



I finally decided to install Ubuntu Minimal on the Chromebook. I have had experience with Ubuntu Minimal in the past, but never setting it up. However, my Chromebook does not have an Ethernet port on it. I could not download any utilities to connect to WiFi without WiFi.



My question is: is it possible to setup Ubuntu Minimal only using WiFi. If I can not, is there any good very lightweight replacement distributions you recommend? I have previously looked up this answer and got this result




I am not aware of any method to connect to a WPA network only with terminal commands.




While this seems pretty cut and dried, that post was from 2010. Things may have changed.



I have found several similar questions here, but most of them include installing another program. Which requires internet. Thanks for any feedback.
