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?

It is made for ICS, and there have been a few users reporting things not working in a "stellar" manner on GB. Just watch and be careful when using anything busybox related. I have had great success with 1.20.0 and an 1.19.4, so that is what I am recommending to most people on until ICS is out, then 1.20.1, should do what it is supposed to.
There are a few kernel hooks in ICS that are not in GB, so certain calls will return nothing or gibberish to the busybox stack.
What Partition Table to use?
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.

Your partition needs to be formatted as an ext3 primary linux partition.
If you go to the OP here I give step by step how to do it with gparted.

You should be ok, that just means that you were copying a file that was being written to, besides those are fonts, so you "should" be ok. Does the rest of the hack work, can you pull up a terminal in webtop? Have you tried to launch webtop yet?
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:
I see you've asked for this information from others, I don't know if it will help but I appreciate any assistance and so I don't want you to have to go back and forth.
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.

Try this, I think that somehow the MACLs (Mandatory Access Control) were not turned off.
Code:
adb shell
su
cd /osh/etc
mv tomoyo toy
exit
exitNow reboot your phone (power it off and back on).
After your phone comes all the way back up, then connect it to the dock, or hdmi cable and try webtop again, and see if you can get the terminal to launch.
Thanks for sending all of that data beforehand it helped me figure out what I think the issue could be, much faster.

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:

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.

Someone asked this same question a few posts back. /proc is similar to temp space, but for the running kernels processes.
You should be just fine. What this means is that you did not got into the webtop connector and stop your last running webtop session, so the files in /proc are out of date.
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:

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.
---------- Post added at 04:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:09 PM ----------
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:

root@edison:/data/local# sh ./setup_webtop.sh
sh ./setup_webtop.sh

root@edison:/data/local#
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?

All of those commands are links within the busybox install... that means that your busybox install is not right... go grab the busybox installer from jrummy or stericson from the google play market, then install it in /system/bin, and have it create the links for you.
then rerun the setup_webtop.sh again.
--EDIT--
I just saw you updated as I was writing...
No the file updated is not an issue, you should be ok, it is most likely something in /proc.

16Ok, Today I will show how to fully unlock the webtop feature in the Atrix 2, so that you can use your favorite Linux apps and desktop, to be more productive while using webtop.
This will be in several posts to make this easier to read and understand.
There are several requirements I will list here, first:
1) A way to use webtop - The HD, or lapdock, or have completed the webtop mod for the HDMI connection Here
2) This is most important, and if you completed 1, then you most likely have done it, root your Atrix 2
3) A USB SDcard reader. I have the Sandisk imagemagick, but any one you like will do
4) Be able to ADB from your computer to your phone
5) Not afraid of a little command line work
Partition Instructions:
Depending upon your operating system, free software is available so that you can partition and format your device without losing all the data on it.
You will need to get one of the apps / iso images below, I recommend the live iso with gparted on it, just because I am a UNIX/ Linux guy by trade and choice, and this is what I use.
Linux gparted live iso image:
http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
Windows MiniTool Partition Wizard:
http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html
You must create a parition on your SDcard for webtop, as this is is a full Operating System and takes a good bit of space. I made mine around 8GB on my 32GB card, and for the purpose of showing you here, I created a 4GB partition on a spare 16GB card I have. 1GB is the minimum, because that is what is already being used on the Atrix2 and I think it is about 80% full or so.
The partition you create MUST be a primary partition and formated to ext3.
For Windows here are some screen shots from another board that may help, with instructions:
This is what the MiniTool Partition Wizard screen looks like when I have an 8 GB SD card inserted. As you can see, there's currently one single FAT32 partition present.
http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=651143&d=1310342755
When you right click on the partition, you'll see a Move/Resize option. That's the one you want to select for non-destructive partitioning.
http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=651144&d=1310342755
At that point, you can select how large you want your partition to be. You want to make sure that the "Unallocated Space Before" stays at 0.00 MB, so that the new partition will be the second one. In my case, I've opted to create a 4 GB partition as the second partition.
http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=651145&d=1310342755
Once that has been set up, right click on the Unallocated space, then select Create.
http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=651146&d=1310342766
We're not worried about the warning that Windows throws up, particularly since we know we'll be creating a partition that Windows can't read anyways. So just hit Yes.
http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=651147&d=1310342766
Create the second partition at the maximum size with the following settings:
Create As: Primary
File System: Ext3
http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=651148&d=1310342766
After that's done, click on the Apply Changes button.
http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=651149&d=1310342766
And now you're done! Put the card back into your Atrix2
Now for gparted:
If you are familiar with Linux and know how to use gparted, just resize your FAT32 partition to whatever size you want, then create a partition at least 1GB in size (I recommend 4GB), and make it an EXT3.
Now for the rest that are using the iso here is some info and screen prints:
Launch gparted:
Here is a screen print of my desktop with gparted running:
Now in the upper right corner there is a little drop down that has something like /dev/sda in it, change this to your SDcard, mine was /dev/sdc.
Next right click on the partition in the middle of the screen, it should be surrounded in green, then click Resize/Move:
Then when the next screen comes up, drag the arrow from the left to the middle of the screen to resize the partition, to the size you want, this is in MegaBytes:
Now will have one partition that is ready to resize, and it should look like this, you will click on the "Apply all Operations button":
Then a little window with the percentage will show up and tell you when it is complete, just click the close button when it finishes.
Next you will right click on the unallocated part of the SDcard and click new:
Then you will tell it how big in new size box, I let it do the whole thing at 4GB, then select ext3 in the File system drop down menu:
Then after you click add in the last screen, you will click the "Apply all Operations button" Again:
Now it will show the percentage window again, and when it is complete, click the close button.
Done! Now it should look like this:
Put your SDcard back into your phone now.
Next will be how to copy over some patches and a script that will do a lot more, and a manual way for the brave.5Now that you can get into synaptic, go find a desktop you like and install it.
I use gnome and I like it, but here is a list of KNOWN working apps, I am sure there are many more, just know some will not work at all.
Working Programs:
OpenOffice
XFCE4
Xchat
LxTerminal
Transmission
lxpanel
rdesktop
VLC Player (Video is choppy)
Gnome-Panel
Evolution Email
Chrome-Browser
Now that you have a desktop you want to run, lets set it up to start for you instead of that launcher at the bottom of the screen now.
After installing your DE of choice thru apt-get or synaptic, navigate on your phone with Root File Explorer to /osh/usr/local/bin/ and open the file "start-oshwt-2.sh" in the text editor and you will be presented with something that looks like this:

I highlighted the section you are interested in in Blue.
The sfalv -i "awn-autostart" command might also bin the file /osh/usr/local/bin/start-oshwt-1.sh
From here, if you comment out the sfalv -i "awn-autostart", then add to the script sfalv -i "xfdesktop" and sfalv -i "xfce4-panel" if you installed xfce4 or whatever Desktop environment you installed. If you followed this, your script should look like this:
#! /bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: start_lxde2.sh
# Required-Start:
# Required-Stop:
# Default-Start:
# Default-Stop:

Be patient!
I am working on getting ubuntu back for webtop for ICS... but the "Official" OTA has not even been released yet. I am working on things using the leak, but that is no guarantee... So, again just hang tight, I am working in the background to bring the ubuntu webtop back from the dead.4Ok, so now that we are partitioned we can do some real fun stuff, and by fun stuff I mean command line.
I would make sure you are plugged into a power source when you are doing this part, becuase the script will run for a very long time, it is copying 1GB of data to your SDcard, and installing a patch that includes another 100 or so MB of needed programs.
Go get this tarball
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU COPY THIS INTO /data/local ON YOUR PHONE
Copy this to your system with:
adb push webtop_unlock.tar /data/local
Now connect to your phone with ADB
adb shell
su
cd /data/local
tar -xvf webtop_unlock.tar
chmod 755 setup_webtop.sh
sh ./setup_webtop.sh
This will do a whole lot of things, like copy the webtop install to your SDcard, then patch it, so that you can run synaptic and a termial and disable the FACLs and MACLs that Motorola has implemented, so that it is not locked down anymore.
***Note: I only had a chance to run and test this script once, so if it is an issue please let me know nicely in a post here, or PM me, but please copy any errors or get a screen print if you can, so that I know what to fix. Please don't post a reply with it did not work, give me as much info as you can.
After your phone reboots ADB into it again, and do this:
su
mount -o remount, rw /
**take note that you must run the "mount -o remount, rw /" command anytime you reboot your phone because any programs you get thru apt-get or synaptic will error out during installation3Now that you have most of what you need Do this:
Connect to webtop with whatever method you like, HD dock, or lapdock, or TV (you most likely have to have a bluetooth keyboard mouse to use your TV).
Then when the webtop session starts:
Ctrl+Alt+T
When the Terminal launches type this at the command line and hit return
sudo apt-get update
From here, you can run "gksu synaptic" and use the password "test" to start installing various different programs and packages that are normally available on Ubuntu.
Dependencies
Take caution when modding Webtop because there are some dependencies that will break Webtop if they are upgraded such as anything ending in a .mot or anything resembling that.
Credits
Please thank [mbm] for fixing what Motorola took out, without him, none of this would be possible without his patch.
Sogarth for being the pioneer of Webtop hacking.
