Hey @Burtrand_AF_Paulie my apologies for the delayed response this weekend buddy.
This wouldn’t be a bad place to go @John_Mertic , @Burtrand_AF_Paulie I’ll give you another resource for specific Linux Kernal training course lab and course questions.
I know @Shuah_Khan helps run a great Linux Kernal mentorship forum here: LFX Mentorship: Linux Kernel — Linux Foundation Forums
This isn’t the wrong place to ask training questions. This forum is for general open source questions, and LFX help. If members of our community can help with general open source questions we most definitely will, if not we’ll do our best to find someone in our community that can help. Like @Shuah_Khan and her Linux Kernal community 
You can find specific Linux Kernal Training Courses in the forum to use as another resource for lab and course help.
I hope this could help, but it sounds like you had a bad formatted USB or a drive with not enough storage.
@Burtrand_AF_Paulie Have you started the installation process through your BIOS yet?
Here are some additional resources I found that may be helpful as well:
How to Install Any Linux Distro on a Chromebook - Linux Tutorials - Learn Linux Configuration
Once you start the installation you can skip to 03:25, and this video walks you through configuring CentOS 8. Bare in mind you may need to have some settings changed due to the course, but this should get you started.
Hope this helps @Burtrand_AF_Paulie . Keep us up to date, and let us know if you figure out what the issue was.
