[DEV] Chroot Ubuntu

---

here you go chroot ubuntu

So you have a working rootfile system like hd2
put the root file system on sdcard location /sdcard/ubuntu
place the two files in /sdcard/ubuntu
(run as root ) just install with -> sh install.sh And READ

installing vnc

in ubuntu linux terminal ->

export USER=root
vncserver -geometry 1024×750
nano /root/.bashrc

Add this to the beginning
###########################
export USER=root
cd /
rm -r -f tmp
mkdir tmp
cd /
vncserver -geometry 1280×750
########################### ctrl+x to save

now connect with your own password and port 5900 or 5901 ad localhost with VNC Android !!

Just download the rootfs from the HD2 form

Ubuntu Chrootenv. <- new

So how does this works -->

# DONT TOUCH FIRST LINE !!!!
mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /system ## lets mount the nand RW so that we can make folders
echo "SETTING VARIABLES"
export bin=/system/bin ## divine where bin is
export mnt=/data/local/ubuntu ## divine where mnt is
export PATH=$bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin:$PATH ## set path so that we can run things anywhere
export TERM=linux ## divine term
export HOME=/root ## divine home
if [ ! -d /data/local/ubuntu ] ## if there go else create data/local/ubuntu
then
mkdir /data/local/ubuntu
fi

echo "MOUNTING"
mount -t ext2 -o loop /sdcard/ubuntu/rootfs.ext2 /data/local/ubuntu ## mount a ext2 loop file from dir to dir
mount -t devpts devpts $mnt/dev/pts ### mount android devpts in root (mnt/dev/pts)
mount -t proc proc $mnt/proc ## same as above
mount -t sysfs sysfs $mnt/sys ### same as above

echo "SETTING UP NETWORK"
sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 ## ip forward so that we have internet from android
echo "nameserver 208.67.222.222" > $mnt/etc/resolv.conf ### as is
echo "nameserver 208.67.220.220" >> $mnt/etc/resolv.conf ### as is
echo "127.0.0.1 localhost" > $mnt/etc/hosts ## as is
echo "All credits to original creator !!!!!!!"


chroot $mnt /bin/bash #### finally lets chroot the dir and init /bin/bash meaning lets start a vm on that dir


and thats all to chrooting

ok this is pure awesome but...it would mean running 2 OS's just like the old day of running multiple os types off my old winmo phone...right?

Wow, great work! Wish the xda app had a thanks button

"So you have a working rootfile system like hd2

Would anyone mind explaining that beginning part? Seems like I have the folder on my SD card and the 2 files but I am missing the "working rootfile system like hd2". Does this mean i need to make an image of an already running root file system.

My apologies in advance if I am asking a noob question.

i dont understand what is hd2

So you have a working rootfile system like hd2

What is HD2 ? And do we put the two files on the Removable ( REAL SD CARD ) or the Asus Transformer ?

rm failed for -f No such file or directory
CP Can't create '/system/bin/ubuntu: Permission Denied
Type 'sh ubuntu' to boot Ubuntu

I suspect they are refering to the ubuntu.img available in the HD2 Ubuntu Dev forum, im downloading now to test, i'll post my results.

Im guessing put them on the Removable
