Code:

losetup: /dev/loop1: No such device or address
script bootubuntu can not create device - /dev/loop1.
change script bootubuntu - change /dev/loop1 on /dev/loop2 or /dev/loop3.

any success?

i work all the day so i can try this only the evening (european time) so i will try it now and sayt it to you

i don't think the problem is here ... i think he's on the line
Code:
chroot $mnt /bin/bash
he is all the code of bootbuntu
Code:

umount $mnt/dev/pts
umount $mnt/proc
umount $mnt/sys
umount $mnt
losetup -d /dev/loop1

/dev/loop0 only exists on the HTC Tattoo. /dev/loop1, loop2, etc won't work.

Ok i Will try this after work in 2-3h

some time ago i manage to make debian work on tattoo http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=682443
check that thread ..
you must mount and chroot it via busybox

Search for Ubuntu on Market, there is an app which can install either Debian or Ubuntu.

i don't find this app

It's called linux installer..

Here you have it! Tell me your results!

I am trying to install Ubuntu on nFinityROM, i have partitioned my sdcard in fat32 and about 500 MB EXT3. Now the program asks me about the full path to the EXT3 partition.
What should i write??

Sorry if I am being pessimistic, what good use it would be if you install linux on phone (like a tattoo).
I understand it would "probably" makes sense, to use on some high end ones
Wouldn't it be a good idea to have dual boot to another ROM than to linux

Have you seen it on Touch Diamond? It has the same screen size and a 528 Mhz CPU.
It is just cool!

i make it for fun .... only ... i will try this after flash my new rom

[Q] Missing files to run Debian?

I had it working on my I897 Captivate, then I Odin flashed back to stock, installed Cognition (previously SRE [Super Rooter Extreme]). I reinstalled debian, but now it errs. I checked my filesystem, and bash doesn't exist anywhere (nor any file with the word bash in it), and this is a list of all the EXT files:
/sbin/mkfs.ext2
/system/framework/ext.jar
/system/framework/ext.odex
/system/xbin/mkfs.ext2
The specific error message I receive when trying to run Debian is as follows:
When I enter:
$su
# bootdeb
I get:
Android Filesystem remounted as read/write
insmod: can't read 'ext2': No such file or directory

OP here. Digging into the problem, so far it seems I'm only missing the ext2 kernel module. The bash it's trying to run is on debian.img. I haven't found an ext2 that will run on my Captivate though.

Upgrading Busybox may have helped, but I'm not sure yet because I broke the Super User app by installing UnleashTheBeast over SuperRooter. I'll try to find out later.

I won't be testing it at all. I bought an N900, as anyone who wants hardware and software they can put to use should.

Ubuntu on Ideos X6

There are threads on this site and elsewhere showing the steps to boot ubuntu on android phones. Our Ideos X6 comes with a powerful hardware so i believe we can run ubuntu on it. But it seems that the kernel must support loop devices. Can anyone make a custom kernel supporting loop devices.
Or has anyone successful in running Ubuntu on Ideos X6.

Our kernel have support for loop device. Take this little instruction how install ubuntu oneiric, also the same process for debian just write distribution name and correct url in debootstrap.
1. this stage you must complete on your linux pc.
Code:
#debootstrap part on PC
sudo apt-get install debootstrap
sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=ubuntu.img seek=838860800 bs=1 count=1
sudo mke2fs -F ubuntu.img
sudo mkdir ubuntu
sudo mount -o loop ubuntu.img ubuntu/
sudo debootstrap --arch armel --foreign oneiric ubuntu http:/ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/
sudo umount ubuntu
sudo rm -r ubuntu
2. push this ubuntu.img to sdcard on your phone.
Code:
adb push ubuntu.img /sdcard/ubuntu.img
3. create this script as ubuntu.sh on your sdcard too
Code:
echo "Setting some stuff up.."
export bin=/system/bin
export img=/mnt/sdcard/ubuntu.img
export mnt=/data/local/ubuntu
export PATH=$bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin:$PATH
export TERM=linux
export HOME=/root
mkdir $mnt
echo "Mounting the Linux Image"
busybox losetup /dev/block/loop7 $img
mount -t ext2 -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/block/loop7 $mnt
mount -t devpts devpts $mnt/dev/pts
mount -t proc proc $mnt/proc
mount -t sysfs sysfs $mnt/sys
echo "Setting Up Networking"
busybox sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" > $mnt/etc/resolv.conf
echo "nameserver 8.8.4.4" >> $mnt/etc/resolv.conf
echo "127.0.0.1 localhost" > $mnt/etc/hosts
echo "Mounting sdcard in /mnt"
mkdir $mnt/mnt/sdcard
busybox mount --bind /mnt/sdcard/ $mnt/mnt/sdcard
echo "Entering CHROOT "
echo " "
busybox chroot $mnt /bin/bash
echo " "
echo "Shutting down CHROOT"
umount $mnt/mnt/emmc
umount $mnt/mnt/sdcard
busybox sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=0
umount $mnt/dev/pts
umount $mnt/proc
umount $mnt/sys
umount $mnt
busybox losetup -d /dev/block/loop7
4. So now we connect to device, run superuser permission, and chroot to ubuntu
Code:
sudo adb shell
su
sh /sdcard/ubuntu.sh
5.run continue deboostrap
Code:
/debootstrap/debootsrap --second-stage
6. setup apt
Code:
echo 'deb http:/ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ oneiric main' >/etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get clean
apt-get update
7. add root password
Code:
passwd root
8. exit from ubuntu shell with 'exit' and run it again sh /sdcard/ubuntu.sh from terminal emulator on your device or via adb shell.
So, now ubuntu install successfully on your phone and you may install openssh and vnc server.
P.S. http:/ correct it with two //, I can't push correct link to forum. its denied post urls.

Error
I followed your steps exactly as given and changed / to // in http i am getting the following output when i ran ubuntu.sh. kindly help

losetup: /dev/block/loop7: Device or resource busy

Possbile what loop7 device already busy on your phone.
ry this command to see it
Code:
busybox losetup
And try manual steps which in script to see which step is failed.

When I type
Code:
#busybox losetup
nothing happens
when i type
Code:
#busybox losetup /dev/block/loop7 /mnt/sdcard/ubuntu.img
losetup: /dev/block/loop7
Code:
#mount -t ext2 -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/block/loop7 /data/local/ubuntu
mount: Device or resource busy
the second line is the outputfrom the command.

Do you phone have block devices in /dev/block/ ?

just checked using root explorer. there are many loop# files in /dev/block folder

You may try with UC kernel, or try with ext3 file system. I suppose what your kernel without support ext2.

i tried with UC v5. It supports ext2,ext3 and ext4. Still getting same error.
Should i convert my android filesystem to ext2,3,0r 4. If yes how to do it?

No, you don't need do converting. Problem with loop device or mount, try to see busybox losetup after mount image to block device, it's must show what image mounted to block device. If it's ok, try different option for mount.
I don't have anymore ideas why it doesn't work.
This scenario successful work on my phone.

Can you tell me what ROM you are using
Sent from my CSL-MI410 using XDA App

Last rom from wellcom (2.3-V318E)

now it works. Installed ubuntu. But i am now unable to install any package. when i try to install tightvncserver i get error message
E: Unable to locate package tightvncserver
actally i am not able to install any package
i have checked the /etc/apt/sourcels.list and it contains the required entry and i also did
apt-get clean
apt-get update
and it updates without any error

You need add another repositories to /etc/sources.list such as universe, multiverse, restricted with the same path.

complete linux errors ???

Hello I'm trying to get complete Linux to work with our Razer but when I try and boot one of the images I get checking loop device... FOUND
mount: mounting /storage on /data/local/mnt/external_sd failed: Invalid argument

net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

I need help getting this to work tryed editing the bootscript.sh can't get it to work

Boot script does not have priviledge

I want to mount the second partition of my SD card at boot time for Link2SD's benefit, but I have been having a hard time.
I copied Link2SD's script in /data/adb/service.d/ and made some small changes:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
LOG=/data/link2sd-11link2sd.log
echo >> $LOG
date >> $LOG
sleep 10
mount -t ext4 -o rw,noatime /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 /data/sdext2 1>>$LOG 2>>$LOG
My log shows: "/data/adb/service.d/link2sd.sh: line 6: mount: Permission denied".
I have therefore tried to use su -c, and my log then shows: "/data/adb/service.d/link2sd.sh: line 7: su: Permission denied".
What am I doing wrong?
If it's useful, the log is also not showing the date.

noticed similar strange behavior guess Magisk is kinda broken
