This is happening becuase of SU, chainfire's uses it's own shell.
Clockworkmod SU, defaults back to /, so the cd made before su command cause script to fail. On newer android ChainsDD doesn't work.
App needs to be updated to do su before cd for CWM, and or run su with these options
for Chainfire's "su -p -s /system/bin/sh"
Great app guys. My only issue besides a black screen I've been battling with vnc..is when I download a distro and attempt to open to zip I get "bad file size" and a series of numbers. The only one that didn't do that to me was the small version ofdebian. It anyone has the large or small version of either ubuntu id appreciate a link. And yes I've tried redownloading multiple times.
The torrents have no seeders and the sound forge site always gives be a bad download.
Also if anyone has a good vnc alternative id love to hear about it

The torrents seem to have no seeders, I would download from sourceforge, try the 12.04 imgs they seem to work for the bigger imgs. Can always update them to 13 or 14.

i got this app /terminal / vnc/ images and im sure my kernel support loop devices but when i press 'start linux" button it just opens terminal but nothing happens and i dont have any clue what to do (i tried kali and ubuntu images)
(sorry for my bad english)
Hello world,
So I recently tried this Complete Linux Installer. I did all the steps as I should but when I click "Launch" it only opens Terminal Emulator and nothing happens.
So I decided to run the commands manually. It says:
MD5 file found, use to check .img file? (y/n)
n
Checking loop device... FOUND
mount: mounting /dev/block/loop255 on /data/local/mnt failed: Device or resource busy
Error: Unable to mount the loop device!
Or:
bootscript.sh /sdcard/ubuntu/ubuntu-13.10.LARGE.ext4.img <
MD5 file found, use to check .img file? (y/n)
y
Validating image checksum... md5sum: can't open 'ubuntu-13.10.LARGE.ext4.img': No such file or directory
FAILED!
Error: Checksum failed! The image is corrupted!
Does anybody know what is wrong?
Edit:
Got it working now. Big thanks to developers

VNC Connection Refused
I've been trying to install Kali Linux on my Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-i9300, but the VNC connection does not seem to work for me. I've tried reinstalling everything several times. I've done everything after the book.
Each time I try to connect this error comes up.
VNC connection failed!
failed to connect to localhost/127.0.0.1 (port 5900):
connect failed: ECONNREFUSED (Connection refused)
I dont have any idea what to do now.
installation of wn722n wifi adapter
Hey I'm trying to connect an external wifi adapter (tp-link wn722n). It shows in lsusb but when I run iwconfig it Returns no wireless extention. Tried to download ath9k and install but now it returns kenral-headers not installed. Now when I'm Trying to install kenral headers (apt-get install linux-headers) it returns wit various options. Which one do I choose? Am I missing something ? Please help.
Got Kali running
I got Ubuntu 13.10 small running as well as kali ext4 the extracted 4 GB in size version
ubuntu runs almost out of the box
for kali I have edited a few file. i'm just gonne post a few but if you want to know what is edited I got some time to sum it up
bootscript.sh version 7.9 added some lines and fixed personal external sdcard
/home/kalilinux/.vnc/xstartup changed desktop start command
/home/kalilinux/.config/lxpanel/LXDE/ copied content from /usr/share/lxpanel/profile/default/* or /usr/share/lxpanel/profile/two_panels/* on the picture I used two_panels profile obviously
/etc/timezone for bash time
/etc/localtime for X time
kalilinux.ext4.img on a linux desktop mounted the image and edited /root/init.sh fixed typo in first boot part. so the image on the site is by default not good I could share mine if anyone is interested
/root/init.sh fixed permissions on the external sdcard as well as added symlinks from the home directory to the manualy added mounts
fixed apt-get key problem so everything is working just have to update the apt-get key sollution to the edited image that would make it complete
lines edited in bootscript.sh and /root/init.sh depend on each other
so not too much and I prefer Kali over ubuntu
s1.postimg.org/qbd8fa84f/kalilinux.png
as seen here got 1.4Gb free space
s12.postimg.org/hzarrjq31/kalilinux1.png

on your device after startup and having root try :/ # getenforce
this should output "Enforcing or Permissive" you want Permissive and if you have Enforcing change it with :/ # setenforce 0
Enforcing being 1
Permissive being 0
Exit the linux enviroment and reload the image again
if you can now login with VNC on your android device localhost on port 5900
if this worked add " setenforce 0 " without quotes on the first empty line available of your bootscript.sh
and add " setenforce 1 " on the last line of the bootscript.sh
Let me know how you get on
unset LD_PRELOAD
If you get ERROR: ld.so: object 'libNimsWrap.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
add " unset LD_PRELOAD " without quotes on the first empty line of your bootscript.sh
Hi,
How may I make ubuntu play sounds through my Zenfone 6's audio system?
thanks!

So I'm currently building an AOSP Marshmallow based ROM (Chroma) to my Android One device (sprout).
I've modified the sepolicy to make RIL works, etc.
But I have one thing, adb doesn't seem to work properly. I have to sudo adb shell to get to adb. And if I do it on Windows, I will get straight to root user in phone's shell (# instead of $).
Here is my device tree:
https://github.com/kclkcl/android_device_google_sprout-common
As you can see there is an adbd.te file in sepolicy folder. I could not successfully build the ROM with this file, if I delete this, the build will go fine and complete.
Here is the error:
Code:
evice/google/sprout-common/sepolicy/adbd.te:2:ERROR 'unknown type auditd_log' at token ';' on line 14045:
#line 1 "device/google/sprout-common/sepolicy/adbd.te"
allow adbd auditd_log:dir getattr;
checkpolicy: error(s) encountered while parsing configuration
make: *** [out/target/product/sprout8/obj/ETC/sepolicy.recovery_intermediates/sepolicy.recovery] Error 1
I wonder what's wrong with my sepolicy, and why I couldn't build with that adbd.te file there. Do I need that policy to be able to use adb normally?
As you can see in the picture, when I type adb devices, it list my device, but it says no permission
