Description

I just tried to use your package to deploy from my linux server and it failed to start chrome:

> Error! Error: Failed to launch chrome!
[0520/024527.811997:FATAL:zygote_host_impl_linux.cc(126)] No usable sandbox! Update your kernel or see https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/linux_suid_sandbox_development.md for more information on developing with the SUID sandbox. If you want to live dangerously and need an immediate workaround, you can try using --no-sandbox.

According to [the puppeteer troubleshooting guide](https://github.com/GoogleChrome/puppeteer/blob/master/docs/troubleshooting.md#chrome-headless-fails-due-to-sandbox-issues) this problem can be prevented by disabling sandbox.
