Hello,
I have an Amlogic TV Box (G18Ref). I have installed Native linux on it using the Rom available here
I want to write software for this Linux. Any ideas how to go about it? Consider myself a complete Noob to embedded Linux development.
If the above requirement is too specific, how would I go about developing software for any Embedded Linux flavour?
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance

Hello all,
Is there a way to port Snort to Android OS? I have already ported
libpcap to Android and I have made some simple native sniffers which worked
perfectly.To do this, I used the NDK development kit that offers you some
tools for cross compiling C programs to ARM architecture.
Is this possible to do it for Snort. I know that Snort is a big project that
contains many source files and uses many modules such as Libpcap, PCRE,
Libdnet, Barnyard2, DAQ. I am wondering if is there a way to build
this code for Android.. E.g. by statically link all this modules.. Moreover an
other potential problem may be the fact that Android uses a subset of libc
(bionic), so maybe some basic functions are not available..
Have anyone done it before? Or, can some one give me some help on how
to start?
Thank you in advance,
Thanasis
We have rooted devices running chrooted linux easily avaliable. That got me thinking. I have a shield TV, and want to do some kernel hacking. There's linux with native aarch64 support, so why not just work in the chroot? Anyone ever compiled android kernels on a native arm processor? I'm wondering if I'd still need to cross compile, or if maybe I could just use native compile tools. Thanks for reading, hope we can get this moving. I'm hoping to get this thing a custom kernel for better Linux support, and maybe some overclocking if possible.
Okay so I am looking at a OS for learning Android Development.
I was thinking of using OSX but what about Linux or Windows?
What would you suggest?
Thanks!
Linux is your best bet and even Ubuntu is suggested in the source code documents. This is due to android being basically a Linux distro
Dear XDA,
So I have a non-rooted Galaxy S7 Edge (exynos varient) and a Nexus 7 2012 (grouper) rooted running CM 14.1.
I am looking for away to run linux, specifically something debian related to run some arm based software and to interface with my linux partion on pc via ssh or direct connection. I plan on running hpc applications such as openfoam, paraview or blender to visualize (if possible) and analysis software like octave and scilab along with c++ and python scripts. I want to be able to also use my devices camera or usb port to passthrough usb devices and sensors.
I have gnuroot debian which is a p-root of debian jessie running on my s7 edge while I have linux deploy on my nexus which is a chrooted environment. I am wondering if anyone knows if p-root and chroot are the same and can they do what I need to? if not is there a way to natively "dual-boot" android and a linux distro?
Thanks for any assistance!

Hello,
I think this could work. [APP] Linux-on-Android project (Complete Linux Installer). It isn't exactly Dual boot but it may suit your purpose.

I will look into it more. It is a chroot so i assume its like linux deploy.
Hi all,
Quick question if I may:
I have just purchased a Toposh mini-Laptop which runs Windows 10 home (https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08JPBJ...abc_CBHDPSWZV5T2TH0RAYX9?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1).
I would really like to install a version of Linux on it, and I am looking for recommendations.
Has anyone experience with doing an install on this hardware?
Since it can be used as either a laptop or a tablet, input using keyboard, touchscreen or stylus. I would really like to keep this functionality.
I am, ideally, looking for a fairly lightweight OS.
Many thanks in advance.
Paul
Replacing laptop's actual Windows OS by Linux OS isn't possible at all.
All you can do is to install a hardware-matching Linux OS ( either x86 or x86_64 version ) in a DUAL BOOT manner .

Hi,
Thanks for the feedback. Will you expand and let me know: Why it is not possible please? What stops the install?
Cheers,
Paul
