I need some help with running chroot ubuntu on my TFP. I had the chroot BT5 ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1428475 ) image running a week ago then I decided to try out my own image of ubuntu 11. I got it to run once using this process but now I get this:
Code:
# su
[email protected]:/ # cd sdcard/ubuntu/
[email protected]:/sdcard/ubuntu # sh bootubuntu.txt
mknod: /dev/loop5: File exists

This is the bootubuntu script I am running:

export kit=/sdcard/ubuntu

if [ ! -d /data/local/ubuntu ]
then
mkdir /data/local/ubuntu

export mnt=/data/local/ubuntu
export PATH=$bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin:$PATH
export TERM=linux
export HOME=/root
export USER=root
mknod /dev/loop5 b 7 0
losetup /dev/block/loop7 /sdcard/ubuntu/ubuntu.img

Help! I feel like I'm going crazy because this worked a week ago but now it doesn't.
Okay, I changed busybox from 1.19.3 to 1.19.2 and now I get this:
Code:
# su
[email protected]:/ # cd sdcard/ubuntu/
[email protected]:/sdcard/ubuntu # sh bootubuntu.txt
mknod: /dev/loop5: File exists

Hmmm, is the Bash command line executable located in a different folder with ubuntu 11? Edit that bootubuntu sh file. Or maybe try removing the loop file under the /dev/ dir.
Thanks philleonard for responding. I checked and bash is definitely in /bin/ and I also tried deleting the loop5 file in /dev/ but that didn't help. Is it a bad image file? The weird thing is that I can't even get the BT5 image to run with the bt.sh script either. This is killing me.
I'm thinking that it's an issue with the loop device not mounting the ubuntu.img but not sure how to fix it.
Try changing: losetup /dev/block/loop7 /sdcard/ubuntu/ubuntu.img
to: losetup /dev/block/loop5 /sdcard/ubuntu/ubuntu.img
Hmmm, maybe try reinstalling busybox. Im running BT5 and Ubuntu 9.10 (I think it is) on my Transformer Prime. BT5 i installed through the script provided in this tutorial; http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1074723.html Its for the Xoom but seems to work just fine.
Cannot connect to VNC
Ive got [email protected] but when I try to connect to vnc i get this. Anyone care to elaborate? I cant apt-get install openssh-server it says failed to fetch. I try apt-get install tightvncserver and it says it cannot fetch. It says it cannot update when I run it. There is no sh run.sh command. I try to run export USER=root
vncserever -geometry 1200x800 and get command not found.
I type le or whatever and it pulls up my connections and I have the 127.0.0.1 port 5901 found but when I put it in the vncviewer it says connection rejected. Please can someone help me I am frustrated with ubuntu ever since trying to run it on my phone.
Hey XDA, long time listener first time caller.
I have an A200 rooted stock and am trying to boot Debian (or any other distro) on it.
I am a seasoned android dev, but new to linux in general. (yes i am aware that android is linux)
i am using the complete linux installer apk and extracting with archidroid. My path is /sdcard/debian/debian.img
i use the boot widget included and the following is my terminal output. i have been unable to find a solution and was hoping someone here would have some suggestions

I just got a clean install of CM10 on MB860 (no restore of any previous settings or apps) and tried Linux On Mobile. When I downloaded the Ubuntu Small image and tried to launch, I got the below error:
Code:

I found one post on linux thread about a similar problem (invalid argument during mount) and the response suggested that the kernel might not support loopback devices. Has anyone been able to run linux on this combination? I would really appreciate any help on this.
