Excellent job Exception13.
I just took a look at ubuntu for tablets. Do you think putting Ubuntu 13.10 (when it is released) and its tablet friendly interface will be possible on the Note 10.1?

I have been reading this thread with much interest!
Can the recoveryimg be flashed without rooting the tablet?
Also, will we see a full howto to get the kernel and initrd build with the Mali drivers included?
great work!!
i would like to achieve the following:
flash the recovery.img with a tool and leaving the stock android untouched.
boot linux in recovery mode from the micro sdcard.
setting up the microsdcard won't be much of a problem, however flashing the recovery might.
any suggestions? (I'd like to keep the Android unrooted)
So I have a bit of a problem.
Whenever I flash the recovery image and reboot I can't boot back into android. Everything flashes fine and boots me into linux, but whenever i try to reboot, it only takes me back to linux and never to android. (this is without holding any buttons on boot). I have to flash a recovery like CWM or TWRP through Odin in order to get back to android.
I used dd in order to flash the recovery.img to /dev/block/mmcblk0p6
I'm using OmegaRom 2.0 which is based on Stock 4.1.2.
Any help would be appreciated.
Both times I did select the reboot to recovery option when shutting down Android instead of just power off. Would that make a difference?
when i do 'shutdown -h now' the system shutsdown nicely and i can reboot into Android. BUT when i try to boot linux again i get the Android system recovery!!
is it possible that the system resets the recovery image?
Are you going to make an standalone app for installing ?i create http://code.google.com/p/opensgn. current in this repo my linux kernel for n8000 and some stuff
CC drivers/misc/tzic.o

do we really need the Linux Mobicore support configured in the kernel?
I have tried versions 4.4 , 4.5 , 4.6 and 4.7. all of them struggle with the code at various places.
I have tried to compile on the Panda board natively and on my Debian PC with a cross compiler.
Which version of gcc and binutils do you use?

export SUBARCH=armv7h
