Hi guys, I'm trying to install kali linux on a galaxy lite from metropcs. I was using linux deploy and have gotten root. I looked for the issue online and got all the same leads but not for my device.
The typical issue is usually a fail at checking mount points. I uploaded a screenshot and was wondering what some thoughts were.

Hello, i'm trying to get linux running on this pda. As there's no specific port (or i did not find any), i'd tried several packages like Rhoubuntu, project Android (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=627997), also titchy linux (btw ran succefuly on my old HTC Uni. ), but basically, i've got struct with HaRET. The early log file looks fine, the image is loaded, but all ends up at "Jumping to kernel" message. May some haret arguments change help? or haret will not work with this device?. Do you have anybody some experience with running linux on MC75A, or similar?
Thanks for any advise...
I am currently attempting to get Android running on a Motorola MC75 and also coming across the same issues. i will be persevering with a good friend of mine who should be able to shed some light on the matter,
Many thanks
Hi guys,
I am new to the forums and just bought a Transformer Infinity T700.
I want to trial the system as is for a few weeks and eventually want to explore the possibility of dual booting to Backtrack Linux and using the system as a platform for penetration testing. Has anyone ever done this before? I can't see any related posts up here and have only read about backtrack being installed on older models.
Would greatly appreciate all feedback and any directions/threads I have missed to read for further information.
1. Use rabits' Ubuntu installation as a base
2. Replace Ubuntu parts with Backtrack parts (mostly the rootfs, and possibly the kernel, if you need a special config)
3. ????
4. Profit!!!
I recently rooted my galaxy s3 (carried by telus) and today I decided to try to install a linux distro onto it. I downloaded linux deploy, gave it permission with super su and attempted to install debian. I got the message "updating environment ...fail" and the install wouldn't work. I tried several other distros too and had the same issue. Afterward, I went into the supersu log and it said the error was "tmp-mksh: <stdin>[1]: /data/local/linux/bin/linuxdeploy: not found".
I'd really like to find a fix for this and any help is appreciated. Also I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to this sort of thing so try to keep it simple please.
Thanks in advance.
Hey everyone,
As the title suggests, of those who have tried out Linux Deploy (for those of you who don't know what this, Its an app that automates setting up of chroot Linux and provides a few different "graphics subsystems" vnc, xserver and framebuffer) have you managed to get framebuffer working?
Seems like its largely trial and error as to getting the correct settings, I was unable to get this working using CAF Cyanogenmod. Maybe its dependent on kernel configuration, i was unable to find any reports of this working on the nexus 5.
Are you still doing anything with this? Currently working to try to get a Fedora install on my phone.
problem #1: i literally installed ubuntu just 2 hours ago and i've already lost root permissions? how and why? i can't edit .profile. and i NEED to edit the file as the sole purpose of installing ubuntu is to learn to build roms. the lineage OS building instructions say i need to add a few lines of code to it.
problem #2: my WIFI is too slow. it only supports WPA personal and my router says that encryption is only 54mbps. speed tests show anywhere from 8mbps to 60mbps. meanwhile, my windows computers' speed tests are where they're suppose to be...around 100mbps. i was using the latest version of linux mint for about a week. same issue.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
i got problem #1 fixed. i had to make a root password.
