As I said before, I am not sure, but I think your problem lies not in the chroot file but rather in the ubuntu file. So try that and report whether it worked or not.

Thanks alot you were right,
The problem was i'm not supposed to change the code in ubuntu, only change in chrootubuntu is needed.

Hi jUANDP,
You forgot to add hildon folder in

Code:

rm /home/user/MyDocs/ubuntu*.img.ext2
rm -r ubuntu
sudo rm /usr/bin/ubuntu
sudo rm /usr/bin/ubuntu-lxde
sudo rm /usr/bin/closeubuntu 
sudo rm /usr/share/applications/hildon/ubuntu.desktop

Provided everything is located in the default positions so, the qole/juan scripts actually work. Once you start fiddling around, the scripts need updating.

You get "operation not permitted" as a result of trying to chmod the file?

So, the code, in a fresh terminal:

sudo /usr/bin/closeubuntu

Gives you this?

You are 100% positive you put sudo before the command?

Then in GNU nano i get permission denied...

Could you be more precise? You get this in the command line? Well. First try and check the command I gave before. Than check back here if it still doesn't work.

@anthonie
try keep presing shift to get numbers in keyboard, let me know if that works

@deny_winarato
if you run from mmc depending of your class of memory sd, ubuntu its going to run more slowly so at least you have no space at all I sugest you to keep the files on the internal memory of the device and follows the guide otherwise you have to change the scripts

Hi JuanDP. I reinstalled ubuntu but it seems that nothing has changed! All my settings inside ubuntu did not change. And Also, To make ubuntu have it's own folder, when i "sudo nano chroot ubuntu" it opens a blank file. There is no way to change :

Code:

sudo qchroot $UBUNTUIMG $UBUNTUCHROOT "$@"

and when i exit (without saving) I have the ./ubuntu file opened. So where do I change

Code:

sudo qchroot $UBUNTUIMG $UBUNTUCHROOT "$@"

Code:

sudo uchroot $UBUNTUIMG $UBUNTUCHROOT "$@"

????

Can you please explain it step by step??

Am I obliged to do it when ubuntu is mounted or unmounted?? thanksssss!!

ok you dont have to do this with ubuntu mounted

I think that the problem its that you are typing

Code:

sudo nano chroot ubuntu

when it actually is

Code:

sudo nano chrootubuntu

Once you do this mount ubuntu:

Code:

cd ubuntu
./chrootubuntu
mkdir /home/user/ubuntu
exit

open a new xterminal

Code:

sudo cp ubuntu/startubuntu /.ubuntu/home/user/ubuntu
cd ubuntu
./chrootubuntu
chmod +x /home/user/ubuntu/startubuntu
exit
cd ubuntu
./ubuntu

please comment the result

Juan,

Holding shift works! Should've thought about that myself of course

Nevermind, got it to work.. Just one small thing..
When i run this script to make the icon appears :

Code:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Ubuntu LXDE
GenericName=Ubuntu LXDE
Exec=/usr/bin/ubuntu-lxde
Icon=/home/user/MyDocs/ubuntu.png
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true

The device freezes and i have to restart.
I already put the ubuntu.png file on /home/user/MyDocs/ubuntu.png...

When i check the app list, the icon won't show up..
only blue square with Ubuntu LXDE on it (but it works though)
