su -c /usr/bin/google-chrome-stable guest

command will work at first instance or bootup of the browser, but not then. Here are the output messages. Maybe you will have a cue about the why it will not boot after first bootup.

Code: Select all

Try

Code: Select all

su -c "dbus-launch --exit-with-session /usr/bin/google-chrome-stable guest"

No guarantees.

Glad you came out to the rescue!

Code: Select all

root@porteus:~# su -c "dbus-launch --exit-with-session /usr/bin/google-chrome-stable guest"
[4684:4684:0415/094348.781390:ERROR:zygote_host_impl_linux.cc(89)] Running as root without --no-sandbox is not supported. See https://crbug.com/638180.
root@porteus:~#

Did not work. Thanks nonetheless.

Why not also try with what it complains about? Or do you want the sandboxing?

Code: Select all

su -c "dbus-launch --exit-with-session /usr/bin/google-chrome-stable --no-sandbox guest"

Without sandbox is not an issue, unless it is one. What does it do to your knowledge? I never got a satisfactory answer about the role of the sandbox.

For the record, I use:

Code: Select all

root@porteus:~# /usr/bin/google-chrome-stable --no-sandbox

Everybody will be happy. I am dropping root mode.
