Crouton is run in a chroot because in that case the Chromebook need not run
in developer mode. Just running regular ChromeOS, you can simultaneously
switch to the Linux chroot via the crosh/shell -- and switch between the two.
Now, you can also boot Linux by itself in developer mode. This requires two
things: (1) a suitable certified kernel, for which the regular ChromeOS kernel
can be used; and (2) a Linux rootfs. Easiest is to install that ChromeOS kernel
on the KERN-C partition of the internal SSD, for which a bit of space (about 32
MB) must be taken from the STATE partition.
As pj already remarked, the internal SSD (also on the Samsung) is only 16 GB,
so you could take another 10 GB or so and allot it to the ROOT-C partition. My
choice is to put that rootfs on an external SDHC or even a USB 3.0 SSD, like 64
GB in size, so you don't have to worry that the STATE partition used by
ChromeOS runs out of space. Putting the rootfs on an USB 3.0 external SSD is
by far the fastest option.
