Jim I thought I'd go ahead and hijack your thread to ask why you say to only install the 1.19 busybox? I've got 1.20.1 installed and haven't run into any issues yet. What haven't I run into yet?

Hey Jim,
I really appreciate all the work you do for the phone, it's great to be able to stretch the limits of our devices with your help.
I tried to do your workaround on my phone twice, actually, with a Franken-hacked (lots of little mods I cobbled along the way) and then with Supercharged and both times ran into issues. I'm also working with an Atrix OG Lapdock which seems to sometimes only want to be seen as a Standard Dock depending on what stage up the mod I'm in, but that's beside the point.
I'm starting from scratch; RSDed to 2.3.5 (which does Webtop swimmingly with the old Lapdock, no mods, root, nothing, although it says "Unsupported Device"), I'm going to update and apply this mod along the way.
Quick question, though. What Partition Table should I use on my SD card? I had GPT because I was in Windows and was trying to clear everything up for the second try but I'm in Ubuntu now and using GParted.
Last time I tried to run your script it gave me an error and mentioned that GPT was wrong, actually, which is why I'm switching to GParted.
Jim,
what happened to my phone is like this

Now we will mount the sdcard with webtop copied over to it, to the correct place, so we can patch it, and remove the FACLs and MACLs. These are what prevent you accessing application and making changes in the ubuntu install.
No FACLs or MACLs running here, skipping to the next step
Now that we don't have any MACLs or FACLs in place, I will add synaptic and a terminal to the install with a patch. After this go thank mbm on the xda-developers forum for this patch!

So I tried wiping everything, right?
I flashed to 2.3.5
Formatted my SD card (I'm pretty sure it was a MSDOS Partition Table I wanted, btw, which Partition Wizard doesn't do, it only does GPT)
Updated to 2.3.6
Rooted with [HOWTO] Root the Atrix 2(Updated for 2.3.6 FINALLY)
Installed JRummy's Busybox from PlayMarket, installed busybox 1.19.4 in /system/bin
Then I started to run into issues. I pushed the tarball over and when I adb'd in I got "tar: not found"... Ok, fixed this by using stericson's and explicitly installing tar. What was that all about? I get things going again, run the shell script, it chugs along until I see this...

... and the phone does not actually reboot. Webtop is working up until this point so I reboot the phone manually, "mount -o remount, rw /", pop it in the lapdock and it doesn't work. I got the pulsing Motorola "M" and then the screen glows but is black, phone's screen is off. If I close the screen the phone thinks it gets disconnected from charge for a second and then tells me it's in a Standard Dock.
I pulled the webtop_setup.log but it's a bunch of directory names as to be expected except for the bit near the end where it says:

What's that "Invalid cross-device link" all about? I feel like that's something I've seen when trying to transfer from internal to mounted memory.

Hi Jim,
I have stock rooted 2.3.5. I have tried a hard reset 3 times, re-flashed the stock ROM with fastboot, formatted the sd card 3 times (tried both gparted and Windows) and have Busybox v1.19.4 installed in /system/bin. I keep getting the following error when I run the script:
....

unmounting your sdcard from the temp mount, now that we are done copying all the files.
I'm not sure how far into the script this error occurs, but it runs for quite a while before reaching this point. Regular Webtop continues to function.
I messed with my OG Atrix and did all sorts of WebTop mods with webtop2sd and chmod but I can't get Atrix 2 to cooperate.
I get the same error as everyone else but for me, the phone won't go past Motorola logo once I reboot after this:
tar: ./proc: implausibly old time stamp 1969-12-31 18:00:00

Now we will mount the sdcard with webtop copied over to it, to the correct place

accessing application and making changes in the ubuntu install.

It took a long time for phone to reboot but it finally did come back and now I am in webtop successfully.
Thank you!!
Good, I am glad you are up and running and did not have the issue you thought you did!
Have fun with webtop!
Thank you! I didn't realize you are in Dallas too. You should let me buy you a couple of beers or some starbucks if you are in the area.
On a separate note, I just noticed that I can't type anything in the synaptic manager. For some reason, the textbox design is messed up and it won't let me tab into it or click in it to type for a software to search. I really want to test the openvpn to see if I can log in to my work from this.
Also, is pidgin not working with this? I should give it a try and see for myself I guess
Thank you once again, all your efforts are appreciated.
How are you connecting to webtop? Are you on one of the docs or using the webtop hdmi hack?
I bought the Atrix 4G lapdock and I just swapped ports. So, to answer your question...I am on actual lapdock.
Ok, it is using a doc that causes that odd behavior with synaptic, I use the HD doc and it does that same thing.
I just learned to live with it, since I don't install things all that often. Once I am all setup I almost never launch synaptic. Luckily you can use the pull down and scroll pretty fast and you can sort the apps by something easy to find what you need like by release number, or app name or, something like that, at the top.
Thanks for the info on that, I would have killed myself over that stupid thing..lol
I ran into issues with system/xbin busybox and all so I am in the process of RSDing it back to stock and start fresh with system/bin busybox and try one more time doing this exactly like you posted.
I had busybosy 1.20 I think (not 1.20.1, as it won't install). I am guessing if I do everything as you said with busybox 1.19 in system/bin on a fresh install...I might have better luck.
If it's still the same, at least my OCD won't bother me as much that I did everything fresh once I got the dock.
Thank you once again for all your help and support.

So, I just did a fresh install of Stock 2.3.5 and updated to 2.3.6.
Rooted using motofail and installed busybox (version: 1.9.4) in system/bin
I am having worst luck than before:

Edit:
I had to install Busybox v.1.20 in order to get sh or tar command to work.
Also, what is this message you get all the time:
file changed as we read it.
Anything to worry about?
I want ubuntu at ICS LEAK 4.0.4 very much..because I`m in Russia, and I want to have a russian input keyboard.
