Build your own Ubuntu Filesystem and Run (chroot) with Android


NOTE: This is an ongoing project for me so I am not done with this post,

Everything works but obviously room for Improvement. Starting with the Mounts in script, not sure proper mounts i should use.

e.g.
mount -t devpts devpts $mnt/dev/pts
mount -t proc proc $mnt/proc
mount -t sysfs sysfs $mnt/sys

or:
mount -t devpts none $mnt/dev/pts
mount -t proc proc $mnt/proc
mount -t sys $mnt/sys

or:
mount -t dev $mnt/dev/pts
mount -t proc $mnt/proc
mount -t sysfs $mnt/sys

???

Lets get on with it.

I was having trouble with corrupted image file or ubuntu.img that i made so i tried a different method.
I kept getting input/output errors.

Using a partition on my external sdcard and Mounting it back to the external card,
to hold the file system, instead of an image file, Mounted in a Loop device.




I dont have the time to to get into detail of the steps involved, I gotta get back to work.
If you want to do this bad enough,im sure you will figure it out.

My Tools:

Ubuntu 13.10 setup on VirtualBox in Windows8 Envirement

Sdcard is class 10 64G, however i have tried class 4 16G and 16G class 10 and it worked too.
SdcardFormatter: https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/
Galaxy Note3 SM-N900P

First
any sdcard will do.

Now im not going to get into how to figure out the "start sector" (mine is 2048 for the particular card im using) all i can say is,
if its a "stock card", and you haven't partitioned it before, you should be ok. If your not sure use SdcardFormatter to get card back to stock.

In ubuntu find your card:

open Gparted and top right corner select: yor sdcard
Mine is sdb..

(Make sure all partitions are unmounted)


Click on first partition then select: information...It will tell you the start sector, make note.
select: last partition,

Do same for last step: if applicable for end sector.

Make sure all partitions are Unmounted
MAKE SURE WHEN YOU DO THE NEXT STEP, YOUR NOT DELETING YOUR SYSTEM
delete all partitions,

select: unnallocated space,
select: the unnallocated space,
select: new,
select: space before 0, space after, (leave space for whatever your system or image size is mine was 3.94G) so i left 4G.
select: fat32 for file system
select: ok
select: next unallocated space,
select: space before is 0 space after is 0
select: file system ext4
select: ok
MAKE SURE WHEN YOU DO THE NEXT STEP YOUR NOT DELETING YOUR SYSTEM

DONT FORMAT ANYTHING
select: apply

Check information again, check for start and end sector to see if they match the origanal settings you took note of at the begining.
If they are different, use SD Formater ^LINK^ to set sdcart back to stock setting.
Try again after you do some homework on Partitioning and formating sdcards.




Make your Image:

Install Qemu:
sudo apt-get install qemu-user-static qemu-system
sudo apt-get install debootstrap

Make dirctory:
mkdir ~/arm
Or whatever

Then make another directory:
mkdir ~/arm/ubuntu
Or whatever

Go to that directory:
cd ~/arm

Then:

Make an image...........................Pick one or make your own size:

dd if=/dev/zero of=ubuntu.img bs=8k count=524000 >...3.99
dd if=/dev/zero of=ubuntu.img bs=8k count=350000 >...2.9G
dd if=/dev/zero of=ubuntu.img bs=8k count=510000 >...3.6G...........etc.

Example: for a 4G do:
dd if=/dev/zero of=ubuntu.img bs=8k count=524000

Make Filesystem:
sudo mkfs.ext3 -F ubuntu.img

YES THATS EXT3:

Set the Filesystem checking interval:
tune2fs -c 0 ubuntu.img

Mount Filesystem:
sudo mount -o loop ubuntu.img ubuntu

Bring in Base System:
sudo debootstrap --arch armhf --foreign raring ubuntu

You can change raring for other distros, such as stable, or hoary. look in /usr/share/debootstrap/scripts

Make folders for sdcard links:
sudo mkdir ubuntu/media && sudo mkdir ubuntu/media/sdcard && sudo mkdir ubuntu/media/extSdCard
Or you can use your own sdcard settings

Copy Qemu file over to Ubuntu folder:
sudo cp /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static ubuntu/usr/bin

Run first Chroot:
LANG=C sudo chroot ubuntu /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static -cpu cortex-a9 /bin/bash

Finish Installation:
/debootstrap/debootstrap --second-stage

Exit Chroot
exit

Mount some stuff
sudo mount -t proc none ubuntu/proc/ && sudo mount -t devpts devpts ubuntu/dev/pts

Start second Croot:
sudo chroot ubuntu /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static -cpu cortex-a9 /bin/bash

Set some Variables:
export HOME=/root && export USER=root && export LC_ALL=C

Create User:
adduser [PICK A USER NAME]

Set Root Password:
passwd

Add some Groups for permissions:
groupadd -g 3001 aid_net_bt_admin && usermod -G aid_net_bt_admin -a dad && groupadd -g 3002 aid_net_bt && usermod -G aid_net_bt -a dad && groupadd -g 3003 aid_inet && usermod -G aid_inet -a dad && groupadd -g 3004 aid_net_raw && usermod -G aid_net_raw -a dad && groupadd -g 3005 aid_net_admin && usermod -G aid_net_admin -a dad && groupadd -g 3006 aid_net_bw_stats && usermod -G aid_net_bw_stats -a dad && groupadd -g 3007 aid_net_bw_acct && usermod -G aid_net_bw_acct -a dad && groupadd -g 3008 aid_net_bt_stack && usermod -G aid_net_bt_stack -a dad


For Raring...........................
echo "deb http://ports.ubuntu.com saucy main restricted universe multiverse" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 428D7C01

For Quantal.........................
echo "deb http://ports.ubuntu.com quantal main restricted universe multiverse" >> /etc/apt/sources.list

For Wheezy.........................
echo "deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list

Dont hold me to the last one you may want to double check.

Update Package Manager
apt-get update

Now you can add packages, these are some of the programs i use:
(i dont like to add all packages at once, i break them up because somtimes i notice dpkg error's when i try all at once).

apt-get install git gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential zip curl
apt-get install xfce4 xfce4-goodies
apt-get --reinstall install xfonts-base
apt-get install samba samba-common system-config-samba
Debian: apt-get install openoffice.org
Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install libreoffice
apt-get install tightvncserver streamtuner2
apt-get install xchat-gnome xchat

MAKE SURE YOU INSTALL TIGHTVNCSERVER..................Thats how you will connect to Ubuntu.........,if you want GUI.



Add permissions for sudo:
visudo

Example root ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
dad ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
(My username is dad)

Dont know if you need this or not i do it:
chmod a+rw /dev/null
chmod 1777 /tmp

To Fix SDCARD
groupadd -g 1015 sdcard-rw && usermod -a -G sdcard-rw dad && groupadd -g 1016 extSdCard-rw && usermod -a -G extSdCard-rw dad

Exit Chroot
exit

Unmount some stuff
sudo umount ubuntu/proc/ && sudo umount ubuntu/dev/pts && sudo umount ubuntu

Transfer your Image to Sdcard


Now Dump the image to Sdcard:
MAKE SURE THE EXT4 PARTITION ON SDCARD IS UNMOUNTED

My sdcard was sdb, so sdb1 would be partition 1 sdb2 would be partition 2

sudo dd if=ubuntu.img of=/dev/sdb2


...........If you notice below, it took 2.8 hrs to dump the image.

dad@dad-VirtualBox:/media/dad/Development/arm$ sudo dd if=ubuntu.img of=/dev/sdb2
[sudo] password for dad:
8160000+0 records in
8160000+0 records out
4177920000 bytes (4.2 GB) copied, 10371.3 s, 403 kB/s

[UPDATE]
So far I have not found any problems using the copy command to transfer filesystem over to sdcard.
example:
sudo cp -rp ubuntu/* /media/dad/4920cacb-49aa-4366-8fb7-016b8e502406 (only takes 15-20min)

(Make sure your ubuntu.img is mounted in the ubuntu folder) using:
sudo mount -o loop ubuntu.img ubuntu





To Chroot it.............



With sdcard in Phone,

Connect to windows usb:

IN WINDOWS:
Open File Explorer:

Create directory "ubuntu" on root of sdcard
Copy ext4ubuntu.sh to root of sdcard (not in the ubuntu folder)

ON PHONE:
Open Terminal:
su
cd /storage/extSdCard
chmod 777 ext4ubuntu.sh
sh ./ext4ubuntu.sh


Ready to go.



Connect to Ubuntu:
Get bVNC Free from Market

In Terminal type:
login dad
vncserver :0 -geometry 960x540

Open VNC Viewer and enter:
localhost:0 for ip address
and password if you want.

Connect



Notes:
I was able to sudo cp -rp ubuntu/* /media/dad/912c45f4-b0bd-4e14-a55d-d8d9bcd4bd6a (which is the path to my sdcard), worked the second time i tried it.
( I mounted the ubuntu.img then copied all files to sdcard)
The first time i tried it i got dpkg errors.
That took only 20min to copy vrs. almost 3 hrs using dd if=






Here are some after thought I made note of, I havent tried them yet but u can, just let us know your experiances with them.


Some things you can put in a script to run after ubuntu started.

df doesn't work, there is no mtab file containing the currently mounted filesystems:
grep -Ev "rootfs|tmpfs|cgroup|mmcblk|usbfs|asec|storage" /proc/mounts | sort -r | uniq > /etc/mtab


if you can only run vncserver/Xvnc as root Try

chmod 01777 /tmp/.X11-unix
or


Fix Upstart
dpkg-divert --local --rename --add /sbin/initctl > /dev/null 2>&1
ln -s /bin/true /sbin/initctl > /dev/null 2>&1
