Hi
What exactly is the difference btwenn the android and the debian/ubuntu kernel?
Of course they are both based on the linux kernel, but where is the difference? Why does ubuntu not run with with an android kernel? Is ist only the configuration which has to be changed for getting an Android kernel to work with ubuntu? of coure, the device drivers, but they are not difficult to implement.
My big aim is to get naive ubuntu working on my tablet
Thanks for your help in Advance

Hello. I want to ask is it possible to run ubuntu on SGTab2? I mean pure desktop ubuntu, not mobile one, nor as virtual machine. All instructions I found deals with Nexus 7. The best will be installing Ubuntu as dualboot to Android(I'm using NEXT kernel, it supports dualboot). Does anybody know how to install it? Or maybe somebody even tried it?
Thank you for answer

Thankyou, but no, not Ubuntu Touch. I asked about Ubuntu Desktop I heared that Nexus 7 users compiled VCMI(opensource version of heroes 3) right in it and are playing on their devices. I want it too Android port was abandoned more than year ago and no one pick it up...
The title says it; Is there a way to make P3110 run Linux natively [chroot free]?
P3110 is ARM and there is allot of Linux distributions compatible with it like Ubuntu or arch even kali linux, but the problem is with the kernel, some devices received official Linux like galaxy note 10.1 got an official kali, some were successful installing unofficial builds to other devices but the Internet failed me when I searched for P3110....
Does anyone know if some was able to do such a thing? If not does anyone know of a good reading materials to do so? I think it's a good project if some expert can adopt it!
Thanks in advance
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.
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,

Hi,
Besides PinePhone what other mobile phones are there available where I can install Fedora instead of android rom's?
I heard someone did it with Volla Phone + Fedora. However, I can't seem to find anything on installing Fedora on mobile phones. I can find Ubuntu Touch website where they detail whats supported, that's cool and all. But how to install it on mobiles for other linux distros such as Fedora? surely you can compile some kernel and install other linux distros like Fedora right?
Please help me understand.

pmOS may interest you. I have never seen Fedora on a phone. pmOS is based on Alpine, but anything supported by it has a better chance of running Fedora than anything not supported by it. Some of these devices have mainline kernel support, which helps a lot with getting stuff running on it.
