I think we should also add this
updating to ChromeOS to 103 or higher is not suggested. If you want to use ChromeOS 103, please use Brunch 103 (or higher) and perform a fresh installation.

Additionally: There are many known issues with recent releases of ChromeOS, most of which are caused by bugs in the OS itself and cannot be fixed by brunch. If you experience any issues that are not covered on the Github's Troubleshooting and Support page, try to reinstall using ChromeOS 94 instead. This version is generally considered the most stable release. You will need to use Brunch 102 for ChromeOS 102 and older, or Brunch 103+ for ChromeOS 103 and higher. You can find old releases here

Brunch 102 should be used with all ChromeOS releases before 103.

Definitely should be added... I had no internet access in setup after installing chromeos 109 - and it never told me that, just white screen with nothing going on ( No error message informing me at all of what's going on... )

If not for luck that I thought of searching in this direction I would have never figured it out... Most of the issues on github have the error message informing them that the internet is broken ,but I guess I'm amongst those who don't... who would even search for "No Internet" when all you see is white screen during setup

No doubt it would help a LOT of users if @sebanc simply added at the end of install instructions : If you're facing issues download chromeos 94 and brunch 102

( I searched for chromeos version 100 for hours , then I found discord group where I asked for help... only later did I find inside discord links to chrome os version 94 )
