  • Rooted Android Tablet

    Ubuntu.zip

    Android VNC Viewer (optional)

    G E TTI N G S TART E D :

    So, if you haven't figured it out yet,

    Android is built off of the Linux kernel.

    Therefore there are many ways in

    which you can get your favorite

    distribution of Linux working. Okay so

    let's get started. On in order to do this

    you will need a rooted tablet. For the

    whole process we'll be using adb, so if

    you already have it setup on your

    computer good for you. If not, no need

    to worry I included it in the zip file.

    Just make sure that you install the

    drivers. (check the vendors or website,

    or just google search "tablet name"

    drivers.)

    S TE P 1 :

    Download and extract the Ubuntu.zip

  • S TE P 2 :

    Connect your tablet to your computer

    and transfer "installbusybox.sh" and

    "busybox" file from the Ubuntu zip you

    just extracted. Place those files on the

    root of your Sdcard. (If you already

    have busybox installed you can skip

    this step). Now transfer the rest of the

    Ubuntu folder to your SD card.

    Qemu Manager

    S TE P 3 : T I M E TO G E T D IR TY

    Now, with your tablet still connected to

    your computer and USB Debugging on

    (settings-developers options-USB

    debugging) go and open Command

    prompt on your PC. Then you want to

    change the directory to your unzipped

    Ubuntu folder. So type in "cd [your

    directory]" i.e. cd C:/users/david

    /documents/ubuntu

  • Now time to install busybox. Once

    again, if you know you already have

    busybox installed skip this step. Type

    in (without quotes) adb devices if

    your device doesn't come up, that

    means its not connected, and chances

    are you need to install the drivers. Now

    type: (without quotes) "Adb shell" (hit

    enter) "Su" (enter) "Cd /sdcard/ Sh

    installbusybox.sh" (enter) (if it says

    already exist, then thats fine)

    Qemu Manager

    S TE P 5:

    Now time to get ubuntu actually

    running. Type: "Cd /sdcard/ubuntu"

    (enter) "Sh ubuntu.sh" (enter)

    "Bootubuntu"

    Install Windows XP

    C ONG R ATULATI ON S, BUT WAIT

    T H E RE ' S M ORE . . .

    Now we need to update the packages,

    but theyre out of date, so we need to

  • use this clever work around. (Thanks

    to Zedomax for this one) Type:

    "Cat>etc/apt/sources.list" ( hit enter)

    "deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com

    /ubuntu/ karmic main universe" (hit

    enter) Then hit control D twice to bring

    you back to local host. Finally type in:

    "apt-get update" (enter) It will update.

    Lastly is to get into the vncserver itself.

    S E T TI N G UP VNC

    Type "apt-get install tightvncserver"

    (enter) "export USER=root" (enter)

    "vncserver geometry 1280x800" (hit

    enter)

    It will then prompt you to make a

    password. You can create it, and voila!

    You're done. On your tablet go into

    android vnc (you can download it from

    the market) nickname can be anything

    you want. Password is the password

    you created. Address is localhost. And

    port is 5901. Then click connect and

    its there. Boom!!!!
