Well just let me know, please, which is the best way today to get superuser and busybox on wife's galaxy tab without too much risk. I don't think I can resist this time.
An ubuntu 10.10 maverick (with LXDE window manager) machine in your pocket. Perfectly usable from the phone itself using a VNC client, this allows you to install any ubuntu software onto your phone and have it with you always. Coupled with the (potential) ability for your phone to be hooked up to a television with TV Out (works with the Nokia TV Out cable available on eBay), and for (supposedly any) HID-compliant bluetooth keyboard and mouse to be linked up to the phone (requires Android 2.2), this really does become a PC in your pocket.
- Place ubuntu.sh and ubuntu.img in the same directory in your SD storage. - Enter a terminal and enter ‘su’ to become a superuser (root). - Navigate to the directory where you placed the files (e.g. “cd /sdcard/external_sd/ubuntu”). - Execute the script by typing “sh ubuntu.sh”.
