I'm trying to create a Chromebook recovery drive using a local Chrome OS image also. Links above dont work. Can you send new ones?

This is Google's process:

On a working computer:

1. If you're using a Mac or Windows computer:
   1. If you haven't yet, install Chrome.
   2. Open Chrome .
   3. Install the recovery extension.
2. To open the recovery extension:
   1. At the top right of your browser window, click Extensions .
   2. To launch the extension popup, click on the "Chromebook Recovery Utility" extension. If the extension popup doesn't automatically appear on your screen, make sure it's turned on.
3. Click Get started.
4. Click Select a model from a list, or type in the model number of the Chromebook you want to recover. To find this number, look at the bottom of the error message on your Chromebook screen.
5. Click Continue.
6. Insert your USB flash drive or SD card into the computer.
7. In the dropdown menu, choose the USB flash drive or SD card you inserted.
8. Click Continue.
9. Click Create now.
10. When you see a message saying that your recovery media is ready, remove the USB flash drive or SD card from the computer.
