I am also working on chrooting other popular distros like Fedora, Gentoo, and more. It’s most likely the case that you can also “chroot” other linux devices that support ARM. In this case, we are lucky because Ubuntu has an ARM-port. You can only “chroot” another operating system made for your system’s architecture, in this case its ARM. So its as good as running apps on VMware or Virtualbox. What is Chroot:Chroot is the ability to run other operating systems under your current system (in this case Android). Once you have a “rooted” Android phone, you will be able to run Ubuntu under Chroot. On your rooted nexus one, install the latest Busybox. Note: For people having trouble getting it to work (thanks to people testing it at XDA Developers), try downloading the new bootubuntu file here. Note from developers at Nexusone hacks: This Ubuntu install will not affect your existing Android system, the Ubuntu terminal will run in the background while the Ubuntu X11 graphical user interface will run as an app under Android VNC app.ĭownload : ubuntu.zip | Mirror: ubuntu.zip
