Ctrl - Alt - F2 doesnt work

Support
1

Hello!

I try to install ubuntu on my Lenovo, ive done dozen old lenovo chromebooks from 2017 with the ctrl - alt - T. But there is one of 2021, and its a newer version, that require the ctrl - alt - f2 function in the inlogschreen, but nothing happens. The keys work just fine when I log in. Anyone knows why this happens?

What do you mean? When does Ctrl + Alt + F2 work and when does it not work?

are you in Developer Mode?

Yes

I just do what is written on the side of mrchromebox, which is: "Under ChromeOS, starting with R117, this script must be run from a VT2 terminal (from login screen: CTRL+ALT+F2, login ‘chronos’) "

When i follow these instructions, nothing happens when i press CTRL+ALT+F2.

Same Situation for me. I have 2 Acer CXI4 in developer mode that dont open VT2 when pressing CTRL-ALT-F2 on the login screen. Like for Linniej → nothing happens

Try Ctrl Alt f3 (refresh)

Does your keyboard actually have a “F2” key? The key for VT-2 is basically supposed to be two keys to the right of the esc key.

A mí tampoco me funciona tengo un acer cb 315-4h.
Cuando intento entrar en vt2 con ctrl+alt+ actualizar, no pasa absolutamente nada.
La chromebook se me actualizo, y la restauré a la versión de fabrica y nada, en modo desarrollador, pero no hay manera.
