Tp2 and Unbuntu?
I read somewhere you can put unbuntu on the TP2, how would I do this, what would it be capable of other the running android on a WM6.5 installation, and what would it affect?

Details details details

Re: Tp2 and Unbuntu?
Can you actually run Ubuntu on WM6.5 and have it boot an Android Rom?

Re: Tp2 and Unbuntu?
Oh well I'm wanting to know if I could install Unbuntu on a WinMo 6.5 and have it dual boot with a Linux OS. Just for S&G's. If it wont work no big deal.

But from what I understand I need a Flashed Rom to do that, no?

Sorry I'm new to tweaking phones.

well i just went and took a look at the link psted above.. its seems ubuntu works same as Xandroid projects -ie its just launched by a haret.exe..

heres how it would work:

youd have your 6.5 your currently on... follow steps in post, then run the haret.exe in your ubuntu folder... it runs!

this is the same process for Android on our devices... dual boot simply is a UI that runs at startup asking if you want winMO or Android to run.. its not something where both run at the same time and you just go back and forth..

to get out of ubuntu or Android a soft reset is preformed and (if you have dual boot installed) the choice of andoid or winMO shows again at the restart..

im pretty sure there isnta "dual boot app" for ubuntu.. you just place everything needed on your sd card and run it off there... just me, if your trying to show off your device, this will still get you "ooohs and ahhhhs"

help any?

Not trying to show off either, but I could start. :O

ubuntu and Android are both ran from a simple .exe file when it comes down to it..

can u run them simultaniously, NO.. but can you have them both on your device and ready to launch at anytime
