With the last version of ubuntu, i seen that ubuntu can support the arm omap 3 and 4 processors, so my question is, it´s possible to make run it on cell phones with this type of processors?
There is the isos of ubuntu arm 11.04

Just bought mine through the woot deal...
Can it be done? I cant seem to find any information on it...
Short answer: No
Windows is an Intel based operating system
Windows Phones have intel based processors like the "Intel Atom"
Android is a linux based operating system that is designed to run on ARMx based processors like the Snapdragon and TegraII.
Any way to run a virtual machine and run it or a bootable usb of windows 7?

Not too sure about Virtual Machine but I did read somewhere on this forum that someone successfully ran "Ubuntu" on the GTAB so there may a VM involvement somewhere in there.
Search "Ubuntu" on the "Viewsonic G Tablet" forums..

False... Windows phone 7 is currently designed to run on ARM, just like all other major phone OS's.

The reason for this is Ubuntu has a version of it that is compiled for ARM processors, it is not running in a VM.
Windows 7 will NEVER work on the gtablet hardware. Never. Ever.
Got it? . Just want to make that clear.

WHAT the HELL? I'm just trying to help the guy out.
How about being a contributor and not being a Jerk about it!
If I'm wrong I'll own up to it. XDA is about helping and not about being condescending to other members!
Sorry, wasn't trying to come off as a jerk, but after reading my post it did sound like it. I just have read enough of the threads on this subject to know the reasons it won't work.
Windows 7 is built for x86 processors.
That would be your intel atoms, pentiums of late, core i5's i7's whatever.
Windows Phone 7 runs on a version of Windows CE. Windows CE was built for ARM processors. These are the processors that you find in your modern smartphones be it iPhone, and all Android phones.
ARM processors are well suited to low power mobile processing hence they're use in about everything.
Linux has been built to run on both ARM and x86 processors, Windows 7 has not. Windows CE does but it's a different product from Windows 7.
Microsoft is rumored to be working on a Windows OS that will be made for ARM processors but one problem they know they will have is that all the current Windows programs won't run on this new OS.
The dual booting Viewsonic tablet that was out was using an Intel Atoom processor hence why it was able to run both android and Windows.
With the last version of ubuntu, i seen that ubuntu can support the arm omap 3 and 4 processors, so my question is, it´s possible to make run it on cell phones like motorola defy,milestone,etc, with this type of processors?

I people. Looking the backtrack site to download this amazin OS I found a mysterious versione. we can download a 32-bit architecture and 64 bit. But now there is arm architecture also
http://www.backtrack-linux.org/downloads/
please look that
ok. I knew that instrunction for running backtrack on device exists but I thouk was only an emulation took from 32 bit architecture instead It is a real installation but with a arm architecture or I wrong somethings?
this build is for low powered arm netbooks such as the augen netbook and also for embedded devices ....don't get me wrong it would be awesome to have this bad boy running on the sensation but it would take some modding to get it to work.
Sorry if this question was already asked(i could not find it any where)
Sorry if this is in wrong place
so here is the question
I know that all android tablet&phones are built with ARM processors.But what is the difference between ARM and desktop processors
they come in single core, dual core, quad core, octal core (read:Samsung To Unveil 8-Core ARM Chip In February so they have a bit more power than the PC's in 2005's so why cant they run a full functional windows 8 or linux(android is based on linux) or win7 or winxp?
win xp need only 512 mb ram but now a days we have 2Gb ram Tablets why do they need android instead of it why cant they insall windows
OR
Is there a way to run windows in tablet (not by emulating)??
ARM is the architecture, different from x86/64, an OS not designed for an architecture cannot run on it...
This is as far as I understand why Ubuntu OS uses CM10 as base, instead of rewriting the whole OS from scratch.

Arm is something like proccesor designed only for small devices like mobiles..
It is at low level for now,later days it may reach to a good speed proccesor.
Since it is for small devices, it will not carry much load, as pc processor does..:thumbup:
I was reading about Win 8 RT Edition and thought if it supports Arm processors, can it run on Andriod devices? Such as Kindle,Nexus and other tablets to come? Not sure about the tablets that use Armv7 , but there's gotta be some.
