Hi,
I've found this emulator that allows us to run iOS on linux.
http://www.iemu.org/index.php/Main_Page
Isn't it possible to create it as an app or using a linux kernel to run it on the HD2?
Greetz,
Kevin
development only started weeks ago, nothing yet works, and according to THIS its already been cancelled.

Ive got a 4g upgraded 32gb Xoom. i saw that it is possible to run linux on the tablet but i had a few questions. i know i have to be rooted (i have a droid x that i rooted) but once i do that, is it still possible to run the android o.s. also? can i choose which to boot in? also how reliable is it on a tablet and is it worth it? Thanks!
You have vastly misunderstood the Linux on Android concept.
You download the Linux image to your tablet. While Android is running, you execute a script that then "boots" the Linux image. You can then access it via terminal or VNC. You aren't natively running Linux.

Hi,
Im also interested in linux on xoom, opensuse for example ...
i ve seen backtrack running on xoom but like it was mentioned b4 its only a image or accessed via VNC but whats the point running backtrack linux if network card is not supported....
Any way if you ve heard of any linux concept since just let us know
Surely it must be possible if the advent vega can handle it!

try Linux Installer from the google play store. its a very nice app and free, allows you to setup linux in a chrooted environment. i also have tried the paid ubuntu installer app but not as many options. there is a way to run it outside of android as well, but im not planning on ever doing this, not at least until ubuntu makes a touch tablet input feature
Hello Everybody,
Many of you must be familiar with Ubuntu Mobile, Ubuntu's latest project in the field of mobiles. Now the question is- Is Ubuntu supported on HTC HD2?
The Answer to the question is- Yes. As explained in the Linked video(See Below) by UBUNTU Co-founder, Ubuntu works on all the devices which can run Android. If you're not sure what I am saying, please see the video, seek it to 20:49 if you don't want to watch the whole video. It is based on Android Kernel only.
See the video here- http://youtu.be/cpWHJDLsqTU
(already Seeked)- http://youtu.be/cpWHJDLsqTU?t=20m49s
So, I am here with a new challenge, and that is the Porting Of Ubuntu Mobile. I hope you all are ready for it! :good:
I will be waiting for a Native SD Release!

Ubuntu is Linux, Android is Linux, nothing new there. 'Supported' is vague. I didn't see the part in the video where he said, and we will provide drivers and support for your 3 year old phone

NO my friend
Ubuntu is Linux,
Android is JAVA + Linux
it's NOT the same
Here's the toolkit they offer to app developers http://developer.ubuntu.com/get-started/gomobile/

Yes, but the kernel is similar (Android just misses out ALSA support). Java just provides the UI.
Ubuntu mobile for the Desire is up: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2165711 :good:
OP, i am just wondering u are porting "Ubuntu Mobile" or "Ubuntu Touch"?
You must acknowledge that "Ubuntu Mobile" is for "x86" CPUs, "Ubuntu Touch" is for "ARM" CPUs.
And currently, i want to port this, too. May be u will be faster
is Ubuntu Touch pure linux without dalvik VM? is it better for that?
Yes, currently, Ubuntu Touch is using the base android.
It uses its HAL, and dalvik VM, etc are not needed.
Ubuntu Touch is supposed to run on CM10.1, and currently, i found a source of CM10.1 for HTC HD2.
Compilation is still in progress, i met lots of errors, but lets hope we will success
I am going to update any progress here.
2013-03-11: This log has been created.
2013-03-17: After lots of tries and debugging, CM10.1 has been successfully compiled. No BCMDHD support. I'll try to port it to ubuntu tonight or tomorrow.
2013-03-22: Way to achieve ubuntu on the htc hd2 has been found. Due to my school tests start from today, development will be slow/suspended for about a week.
2013-03-24: Base android has been successfully ported into the HD2, although it is a bit slow/buggy, it is still acceptable.
2013-03-24: UbuntuTouch rootfs OK! No gui yet, need sometime for debugging.
2013-04-03: I just figured out that everything i done was wrong, i should use my custom android-init instead of the old init, debugging for the new init.
R: Ubuntu Mobile - Development
so Ubuntu mobile can't run on HD2? just x86?
are there any differences between the two distro?

Any download link for testing so far?
Thanks!
this looks pretty interesting hmmm
I tried to install an application for a raspberry pi on my nexus 7. I extracted it, but when I tried to run it, it failed with:
No such file or directory
Any solutions?
Sounds like it is meant to be run on the pi. Not the Nexus 7.

you can't just arbitrarily run any application. it needs to be an android app.

What he said, and usually the system says that when the file is not marked as an executable.
Even if the binary was designed to run on ARM-based processors, it needs to be compiled for that operating system.
For example you cannot take a console binary made for Mac OSX (identifier Mach-O), and run it on a FreeBSD system even though OSX was originally based on FreeBSD4 (much the same as how Android was originally based on linux variations, and is still technically linux, but technically not).
I mean unless someone wants to write some kind of binary compatibility setup, much like how I can run *some* linux binaries on FreeBSD using the Linux Binary Compatibility port. But out of the box, not going to happen unless it was written for Android.
PS: Easier Analogy... trying to run a windows EXE on Android.
So how do I install the proper libraries? My device has the stock rom and it is rooted.
You learn how to code and port it.

Wtf? You should read up on how applications work. Installing libraries is the least of your concerns. If the application had not been compiled to run on android it won't run. Period. Its not a difficult concept to comprehend.

Doesn't work that way, differnet binary code won't run on a system it's not compiled for, choice is to recode I yourself or hope someone has a battery sucking emulator for android.

Hello everyone,
Before you start flaming me for posting a redundant thread, please hear me out.
After bricking my TF300T (had xubuntu installed and had to f*** with partitions..and I f***** it real good) I've decided to get myself a Nexus 10. I've been doing some research on the matter of running Ubuntu Desktop (NOT touch) on it I've seen many tutorials on how to do it I've come across plenty howtos on how to install it on the Nexus 7.
My question is, is it possible to use the same process/images for my brand new Nexus 10? How different are the devices from each other?
I've seen that Canonical has released a Ubuntu Dual Boot Installer compatible with the Nexus 10. Would it be possible to use the Rabbits kernel I used for the TF300T? Also, as far as I've seen Multiboot is only compatible with the Nexus 7.. or have I seen wrong? Did I make a bad purchase and should've gotten an other tablet?
Thanks in advance for your time and help and my advanced apologies for inconveniencing anyone with this thread.
As far as I know (and I've only triedndoing this once a while back so I may be wrong) there is no way to partition the storage in the nexus 10 to install Ubuntu, and there is no kernel to support it. You would have to run the Ubuntu iso through chroot in the terminal, and then use a VNC client app to use Ubuntu. Effectively, you'd be running Ubuntu in the background whilst running android to view it, so performance (and compatibility) takes a hit.
But, like I say, times and developers have changed so I may be entirely wrong now...
Say you manage to partition the emmc.. Then what? You'll need to port drivers over from Android (not an easy thing to do since they're proprietary).. Ubuntu touch is Android based.

Hey guys , ive been searching for days but cant seem to find a guide or download for this anyewhere , was wondering is it possible to boot ubuntu natively on our tegra note 7 ? ive already tried and suceeded in running ubuntu in android using the chroot method but i want to know is it possible to boot straight to / dualboot ubuntu ?
Thanks in advanced

I take it you mean Ubuntu in its direct form like the standard Desktop OS ?
If so there is a arm version of Ubuntu Server 14.04 coming out soon but thats a ARMv8 only. Now heres the catch our Tegra Note 7 is based on a Coretx A15 SOC which is ARMv7.
Now the only version of Ubuntu i know that was ported to ARMv7 was Ubuntu 12.04.
There was a Tegra 2 Version of this which you can read about here : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/TEGRA/AC100
So its possible, however as of yet the only other option would be Ubuntu Touch but thats not a native ubuntu.
thank you
Thanks for the reply and link , ill have a look and see what i can find , if i manage to get anything done ill post back here

Can you make a thread on instructing how to chroot into ubuntu and run ubuntu on TN7? What applications work on it?

Yes i will make a thread , unfortuneatly i have not tested any applications on it as of yet , i should have the thread ready by sometime tomorrow
Did anyone figure out how to do it ?
I can at least vouch that the Tegra 2 version of Ubuntu worked on my Acer A500. If you can live with the basics, it's cool, but the amount of software available for ARM is minimal. It's also very unfriendly to touch, so you'll need a mouse. I personally can't think of anything I was able to do with it that I wasn't already able to do more easily with Android, so eventually I took it off.
