Got GalliumOS up and running with a dualboot (using chrx and mrchromebook.tech), got exFat installed (via sudo) so i moved the EQ files over, but now Im at a dead end as to what to do next.
once you got the OS up and running its pretty straight forward, install wine, run wine config (so it creates a virtual drive ), move EQ to the virtual drive it creates, and either follow the more updated linux guide or do what I did in the OP (which was copied from said linux guide anyway):

Step 5, Desktop icon (if desired).
(credit https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=14125)

- Load terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and type Run Gedit
- Copy paste below script and save file wherever you like:

Code:
#!/bin/sh
# if you don't have the script's cwd set, you get XML errors
export WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine/
cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Sony/EverQuest

# Bind to one core of the processor and launch.
# The client will spew a lot of errors, especially every time
# you target a mob, hence the stdout/stderr redirect.
# You probably want to leave off the 2>/dev/null until you're satisfied
# everything is working.
taskset -c 0 padsp wine eqgame.exe patchme 2>/dev/null
- Load terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and type sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends gnome-panel
- Then type gnome-desktop-item-edit --create-new ~/Desktop
- Point/browse to the above created script file and name accordingly.

Probably need to disable vertex shaders in the client file (otherwise get floating weapons with no character models):
edit eqclient.ini, where VertexShaders=TRUE change to VertexShaders=FALSE
