It took my quite a while to find this information, and unlike most topics it was not on StackOverflow (or at least I couldn't find it).

It used to be I used the qemacs editor on chromeos (CR48) to change the .profile file. I couldn't find the updated one for the newer Samsung chromebooks, so

question: How can I create the shortcut to dual boot between ChromeOS and Ubuntu easily?
