If so what would the steps be?

You will have to enter "Developer Mode" by setting a little switch on the side of the chrome book: http://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/poking-around-your-chrome-os-device https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-y6p9tAgGE And compile python for chrome (or at leaset link static on a similar linux) as described here: |

It's not possible to run Python on ChromeOS unless you take the source code and built it with extra pkg. It's true that ChromeOS is based on Linux but it's very thin layer and lots of lib/pkg where left out so it will be secure/fast. |

Check out notebookcloud.appspot.com if you want a complete, Python based, computing environment for Chrome OS. It was designed to provide exactly that. NOTE: I work on this project personally, so this is a shameless plug. |
