I'm having trouble getting the recovery media to work. I'd like to try creating it from a local copy.
Does anybody have the direct download link for Acer Chromebook 15 CB5-571
Thank you.

    You download the generic ChromeOS image from Google, nothing special...

    I was under the impression that the builds you would download directly from dl.google.com are specific to each individual chromebook model.
    Is that not the case?
    If there is indeed one generic download for all. What is the proper link for that? I'm not sure if I have that.
    Thanks in advance.
