Actually, the Chromium wiki already tells you how [1]. ;)

@Michael: Congrats on receiving one, you'll enjoy it. Haven't got a
whole lot of use out of mine since the beginning of this month
(doesn't support university wireless) but it's definitely fun to
experiment with. Be sure to flip the developer switch to unlock the
full potential of the device! You'll have to anyway if you want to
install other OS images (ie, Ubuntu).
