chroot into android?

Hi!
This may be a ridiculous question, but I'm curious and haven't yet been able to find a good answer to it.
Given that it's possible to chroot into Ubuntu from WebOS, on the touchpad, is it possible to also chroot into android from WebOS? Would such a process be very much more difficult than it is with Ubuntu?

Found this, which may or may not be relevant:

So it looks like I'm not the only one who's thought along these lines, but all such projects seem to have died. Is android that tricky, or is the interest simply not there? Ubuntu chroot was possible, and there's some work being done on getting ubuntu and arch running natively. Ditto, of course, for android. Is the horror involved that much greater?

Like I said, I have no idea about anything Just thinking that maybe the progress made since october by the CM7/9 people would make the job easier.

mm

Good luck! Will you use android for x86 in that case?
I'm wondering if it's a problem that android doesn't use X

Android Remote, Control Your Phone From Desktop

Here's an App for Windows that Controls yor phone from desktop, very handy tool to have if you have a faulty digitizer or touchscreen and soft buttons not yet working on a new port.
you will need to have SDK install to use this.
you just need to install Android SDK to default install folder and give permission on phone if asked, that's it. Android SDK Linik http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Run as admin if you have an problem
You may also need to install JDK if not already installed, link : http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
it looks a bit laggy on the computer, but the phone actually response in real time.

Uh, download link?

even though ubuntu touch is available for devices like nexus 4, it is still in development phase.....
It might soon be available with good app support but currently it is unavailable

Sorry bro. Ubuntu touch isn't working on the Tate yet and I doubt it'll be any time soon.
Sent from my GT-i9100 running CM11

It used to work, but then Ubuntu changed things and made it extremely difficult to get it working (even @Hashcode couldn't do it. I tried to work with him on it for a little bit, but we never got it working)

there was incomplete documentation. now there is no doc.

This might be OT, no need to reply to this.
How about flashing CM11 and then installing some other chroot linux. Fdroid has at least two debians that run by chroot.
The last CM11 snapshot from november works fine on my tate so it should be a stable base for a chroot linux.

Nexus 7

Is it still possible to install on nexus 7 although not supported by ubuntu installer and multiboot
I'm thinking its possible from cwm
Which roms would be used..

Are you referring to the first gen n7(grouper), or the n7 2013(flo)? I don't think it's official support, but multirom manager will install Ubuntu touch on flo. I've played around with a couple roms that way, and the basic features seem to work, although it still feels like a pretty early build, and I haven't been able to get things like bluetooth working.

I tested it with the older version and a full blown version of Ubuntu both were not very good so I've upgraded and have the new nexus 7 coming today which is supported by Ubuntu touch, looking forward to seeing and trying it on the tablet

If you would actually go to the page or look at the URL, you would see that it's Ubuntu Touch.
