What is the default username and password for Arch? I'm trying to use the CLI img files with Linux Deploy, but I can never get in via SSH or VNC, always connection refused. I'm using LD instead of CLI because this app has issues with Marshmallow.

Thanks!

Please help. Error: unable to get permission from terminal app , please reinstall complete Linux installer , please resolve this

Same question as you.The fact is that the loop device mounting is not supported by your kernel.A Possible Resolution is to format SD to ExFat so that ubuntu files can be put on it.Wish to help.

Hey guys,

So i have used p-root and chroot with linux deploy.

I am looking for away to run linux, specifically something debian related to run some arm based software and to interface with my linux partion on pc via ssh or direct connection. I plan on running hpc applications such as openfoam, paraview or blender to visualize (if possible) and analysis software like octave and scilab along with c++ and python scripts. I want to be able to also use my devices camera or usb port to passthrough usb devices and sensors.

Can this app allow me to do this?

Error in line 110 of init.sh

Hi!
I'm get an error when starting Debian,vnc server:
"Start VNC server? (y/n)

Y

/root/init.sh: line 110: [: ==: unary operator expected Start SSH server? (y/n)

[ ] Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server: sshd.

If connecting from a different machine on the same network a s the android device use the address below:

ethO: error fetching interface information: Device not found"

How I can fix it?

 

[palbadi]

Try my simplified script without any app.
I have done it on my Redmi Note 3, but all steps are same except the step of remounting system in terminal..

Problem solved by giving the app permission to the terminal from device's settings, but now I got another problem, vnc is not connecting cuz of authentication error, I tried every password possible, and ports 5900 and 0 but no difference

 

[sysctl]

Hi!

I have configured everything. When I click "start linux" button under "launch linux" view it says "no apps can perform this operation". I have not found any help for that from google. Could you give some hints please?

 

[manjit saha]

When i click on start linux it just open terminal emulator and nothing happened.
