[Need help!]Run Ubuntu on SG3

Hey guys,as somebody had already run ubuntu on g1 and n1 etc. I wonder if we can run it on SG3 or not.
I got nexus one's ubuntu.img and the scripts to boot it.But now I got some trouble.
The way to boot it is to mount the image file into a block device.Such as:
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl6 /system
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl7 /data
mknod /dev/block/ubu b 7 0
losetup /dev/block/ubu /sdcard/ubuntu/ubuntu.img
But when I mount ubu to a folder like:"/data/local/ubuntu" as ext2 filesystem it shows no such device.
I thought the kernel didn't support the ext2 fs.I even tried ext4 and rfs.rfs fs shows busy.
Anyone can help me?

Can only see sdcard as root.

I have a HTC One M8. I have a sdcard with 2 partitions. /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 is vfat, /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 is ext4. I've used this to mount the sdcard:
Code:
mount -o remount,rw /
mkdir /storage/sdcard3
mount -o remount,ro /
mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 /storage/sdcard3
mkdir /storage/sdcard0/user-data
sdcard /storage/sdcard3 /storage/sdcard0/user-data 1023 1023 &
As root in a terminal, I can read and write to /storage/sdcard0/user-data no problem, however none of the apps can see it, not even file managers with root access. Maybe there is an extra step involved for KitKat? I'm also using the HandleExternalStorage Xposed module, which at least helps with the vfat partition.
Bump.

[Q] Apps can't see mounted ext4 partition.

On my previous HTC phones, I was able to mount an ext4 partition simply by doing:
Code:
mount -o remount,rw /
mkdir /storage/sdcard3
mount -o remount,ro /
mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 /storage/sdcard3
Problem is, I can only see the files in terminal. None of the other apps can see anything, even with root access. Anyone been able to do this successfully on this phone?
Bump. From the terminal, I see no reason why this shouldn't work. I've mounted with the same options as other partitions, and even used chmod and chown to modify permissions to be identical to those in other mounts. I'm not sure if this is a KitKat issue, or something HTC has done to the ROM itself.
I've been able to do this on both my Incredible and Rezound, both with stock and AOSP ROMs. I'm really stumped why I can't get this working on my M8.

[ME176CX] Looking for an init.d-script mount sdext2

Hi,
I am looking for a working /etc/init.d/-script to mount /data/sdext2 on my ASUS ME176CX.
Googling I found several times this snippet mentioned:
mount -t ext4 -o rw /dev/block/vold/<ID_A>:<ID_B> /data/sdext2
mount -t ext4 -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 /data/sdext2
Depending on the source of information ID_A and ID_B are varying, but none has
matched the situation on my tablet.
Furthermore I dont know "vold"...what is it? What purpose have it?
Another question: Is it ok to simply mkdir /data/sdext2 or does this need
a similiar "magic" pre-command like that vold-thingy before the real mount above?
I know that LINK2SD creates similiar, but I dont want to use LINK2SD.
Any help is very appreciated -- thank you!
Cheers,
noriatell

Finally got root via adb. Now having trouble mounting /system

Back in 5.1.1, I was able to mount the system partition.
Now in 7.0, I couldn't mount it anymore without making my phone crash
I've tried different methods...
Code:
mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /system
This crashes my phone
Code:
mount -o rw,remount,rw -t ext4 /system
This reports back "...Device or Resource busy"
So then I was thinking that something might be using that directory so I tried to make a system mount point in /mnt, thinking as processes depend on /system, I must make another mount point
So I did, this time, "mount" says system is mounted with "ro,seclabel,relatime,norecovery" as it's option. so when I changed it to "rw,seclabel,relatime,norecovery", it doesn't mount, with no errors
So I tried, with system mounted on /mnt/system,
Code:
# mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/sda18 /mnt/system
(don't worry I know you can do ".../platform/xxxxxxxx.ufs/by-name")
This ALSO crashes my phone
So I pretty much gave up, and looked online, and all I found was the same process, but nothing on "this crashes my phone" or any other.
Agreed
I had the same problem. Hard lock up of phone.
