I've done previous points of your guide, but I don't exactly understand this one:
Use these following instructions:
Finally, get an otapackage cm11, then after the build, remove the system folder and copy over it the Ubuntu system folder.
It's necessary to fix META-INF folder also the wily or vivid tar.gz preinstalled script capable to install as an otapackage zip file.
Does that mean that I have to install standard CyanogenMod 11 on my S3 and then replace it's system folder with the "Ubuntu" one I created?

Just unzip the ota, delete the system folder and paste the ubuntu system folder ( you also have to decompress )

So I'm trying to flash this for a while...
I took these steps:
Root phone,
Flash costum recovery,
Phone still boots.

Boot in recovery,
Wipe data, dalvic and cache
Flash Ubuntu-Touch-i9300_build3.zip
Flash saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip (Found it random on the internet can't find it anywhere else)
Reboot phone,
I get a black screen with some green pixels in the corner...

I tried it several times with diffrent files
cm_i9300-ota-eng.pedro.zip
trusty-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip

So does anyone know how I can fix this problem?

Also it keeps seeing: "error opening 'data/ubuntu/dev/ram0' " in recovery
I can see the folder in file explorer(recovery) though.

    Hi there everyone.

    I think I got Ubuntu tree to get working with Sony xperia Z Ultra, Sony Z Tablet and Samsung Galaxy S3.

    After this successful working tree I'm doing the Sony Z compliant, then I'll try to get Samsung Galaxy S3 compliant too.


    Today Samsung Galaxy S3 Ubuntu touch utopic or vivid system image building is on the run now.

    I got the make doing his batch effort.

    Let's see the end. I hope to see success in the end.

    Hi
    I am experiencing this problem while I went for final step (
    Code:
    mka bacon -j8
    ).

    It did not create any zip in .../out/target/product/DeviceName/

    Here is the log->
    http://pastebin.com/CcNXpbSR

    I believe the cause of problem could be->
    Code:
    make: *** No rule to make target `/home/jaskaran/android/UbuntuPort/out/target/common/obj/APPS/framework-res_intermediates/src/R.stamp', needed by `/home/jaskaran/android/UbuntuPort/out/target/common/obj/APPS/DeviceSettings_intermediates/src/R.stamp'.  Stop.
    (As told by a forum member).
    I basically didn't see any errors in outputs except "fatal: Invalid git file format: ...repo/repo/.git/clone.bundle" but thats network problem. Right? And btw the sync went fine after that. Even when I ran repo sync again (without deleting repo folder), it successfully fetched everything from existing files. There was no error then.
    I also did run make clean command before building it, but still.....


    EDIT:

    I came over this problem by editing the i9300.mk and removing "DeviceSettings \"->
    Code:
    # Product specific Packages
    PRODUCT_PACKAGES += \
        DeviceSettings \
        libsecril-client \
        libsecril-client-sap \
        SamsungServiceMode \
        tinyplay
    (so is it ok? Or will I loose settings app?)

    Anyhow, I came over this error and there is a new one now->

    Code:
    Export includes file: frameworks/av/services/camera/libcameraservice/Android.mk -- /home/jaskaran/android/UbuntuPort/out/target/product/i9300/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/libcameraservice_intermediates/export_includes
    make: *** No rule to make target `/home/jaskaran/android/UbuntuPort/out/target/product/i9300/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/libTVOut_intermediates/export_includes', needed by `/home/jaskaran/android/UbuntuPort/out/target/product/i9300/obj/EXECUTABLES/mediaserver_intermediates/import_includes'.  Stop.
    make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

    Thanks.
    Please help.
