I need the Remix OS to mount other partitions in my computer,such as Disk D(sda5)、Disk E（sda6）and Disk G（sda7），https://www.reddit.com/r/RemixOS/comments/430hpx/question_does_remix_support_ntfs_partitions/
from this thread i know how to edit grub.cfg to mount the Disk D as SDCARD,the grub.cfg like this:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Code:
menuentry 'Remix OS ' --class android-x86 {
search --file --no-floppy --set=root /kernel
linux /kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_cn_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive quiet DATA=/data SDCARD=sda5 CREATE_DATA_IMG=1
initrd /initrd.img
}
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
now,i want to mount both Disk D E and Disk F on the Remix OS,how to edit the grub.cfg?
please tell me ,thanks in advance！
To mount any partition or file img you must do it in "initrd.img/init" script
I'm not sure if its like this "mount -o loop /dev/sda5 sdcard1"
just google it

That's only the case for partitions that need to be mounted before the system is loaded.
Stickmount by chainfire should be what you need.
Alternatively you could run a script like:
Code:
for a in `ls /dev/block/ | grep sda`; do sdcardp=/dev/block/"$a";num=`expr "${num:-0}" + 1`; sdcardf=/mnt/media_rw/sda"$num" ; [ -e $sdcardp ] && mount -o rw,remount / && mkdir -p $sdcardf && fst=`blkid $sdcardp | awk '{print ($NF)}' | cut -d\" -f2` && mount -t $fst $sdcardp $sdcardf && mount -o ro,remount /; done
Would do something similar; with some caveats.

put the code in terminal and run or put them in grun.cfg? i don't how to use the script.

Put it in terminal; or use a script manager app so it's easy to run every boot.

1. purpose just speeding up the system.ext2 file making.I'm lazy....
2. use it in Ubuntu O.S. with root account
3. decompress this auto builder and put it in folder /root or else place
4. put the CWM ROM's zip file in the folder "cwm_rom" and put the kernel modules *.ko files in the folder " kernel"
5.open terminal, cd the folder of this scripts, and execute it.
bash systemext2builder.sh then it will auto build the system.ext2 for SD ROM.

Problem for build mimu 1.5.20
It's a good application.
I put the miui_HD2_1.5.20_3nhrpwvbo7_2.3.zip into the cwm_rom folder, and copy all *.ko files that extracted from the system.ext2's \lib\modules folder in the miui_HD2_1.5.20_3dak_SD_2.3.4_ACA_r518.7z into the kernel folder, then a system.ext2 file was built with no errors.
I replaced the origin system.ext2 from the miui_HD2_1.5.20_3dak_SD_2.3.4_ACA_r518 by this file, run it from my HD2 SD card, all was fine expect the GPRS. The origin system.ext2 hasn't this bug.
What's the different?
Ty 3dak for this. Are there no way to do this in Windows?

No matter what I do the system.ext2 is always missing in action, nowhere to be found even after I "sudo chmod 777" the folders. I always get the error "system.ext2: No such file or directory"
I have ubuntu installed in a different drive than windows 7
This is what I did: BTW, I always have to sudo since I don't login as root
I put this zipped NAND "Runnymede_0.82.401.1_v1.3_Tmous" to the folder as you instructed,
I extract all the ".ko" files from this ziped ROM and put them in the "kernel" folder as instructed.
I go to terminal and i sudo the bash command. It spits out the system.ext2 file with a lot of other files.
I copy the system.ext2 file to the Desktop.
then mkdir /mnt/mystemext2
then mount -t ext2 -o loop system.ext2 /mnt/mysystemext2
I sudo chmod 777 the folders to be able access them. I even drag the system.ext2 from the Desktop to the /nmt and mnt/systemext2.
Still, all is empty.
What am i doing wrong?
When I try to copy directly system.ext2 to /mnt or /mnt/system.ext2 I get "not enough space error" but I don't see anything in the "lost+found" folder or anywhere else.
And also what program to use in Ubuntu to be able to open and see and edit the contents of system.ext2 in the folder?
PS. What are the instructions to use tools.zip for ROM making?
Thanks!

put system.ext2 in your home folder,
then open terminal,
cd ~ (this will goto your home folder)
ls (check if you can see system.ext2, if no, you put it at wrong place)
mkdir /mnt/mysystemext2
mount -t ext2 -o loop system.ext2 /mnt/mysystemext2
-----------------
or if you want to keep the created system.ext2 is mounted, just open the 3daksystemext2builder.sh,
#now unmount system.ext2
umount $mount_dir
change to
#now unmount system.ext2
#umount $mount_dir
this will keep the system.ext2 is at MOUNT status after the system.ext2 created. check folder /mnt/system and modify or copy
remember to umount it after you finish your work,
umount /mnt/system

Re: [MOD] Full Linux (Debian) inside WebTop! v0.2.7
I managed to unlock, root and install WebTopMOD on my new2me searet Atrix 4g. Great feeling for an android n00b! I can run iceweasel, gimp and whatever I like just like any linux distro on the webtop as long as I start a new shell to launch linux apps. I had wanted to continue on to using the instructions in post #865 by jissee44 to get the xfce4 window manager running. No luck! I can launch (I think) xfce4 manually and the entire view changes - new wallpaper, new toolbar, but no access to the linux filesystem - everything connects to the android filesystem.
Here is what I think is needed to see what went wrong. There are only two files to edit when following post #865. I am including the entire file as the posting I was following does not include diffs.

provides some of the results I want, but leaves AWN in control. Now that the new ICS ROMs are coming out I'll have to see if I can just make webtopMOD usable until something better comes along. It would be good to see better documentation for n00bs. The forums are a little rambling. There is a lot of good info, its just scattered.

Thanks for the terse explanation, jisse44. It took me a while to get around to reading the docs on chroot. It makes sense that webtop isrunning in a sandbox. That is inherently limiting.
I still love webtop and my lapdock. It will be interesting to see what happens with webtop and the ICS ROMs on the Atrix 4G.

Or not....
By now you can only run last new "webtop" on ICS Roms, and this is not THE webtop, it's a tablet mode: no Ubuntu or debian, only Android....
I have two of these devices sitting around and I was wondering how people were repurposing them. I just picked up a Raspberry Pi with the intention of setting up a home automation system. Isn't the Eris also an ARMv6 processor? Could they be used as smart WiIP video security cameras? Is there a Linux distro somewhere? Anyone have any experience?

this is not the init.sh.
the init.sh is iniside the ubuntu.img so to boot using the init.sh you can edit the rc_enter.sh to start init.sh like so:
./init.sh
you can also start a service like so:
service hostname start
I want to make app symlinks to sd-ext on booting.
I made a short init.d script, And It correctly worked on JB based rom.
But after I downgraded to GB, It doesn't work anymore.
I founded that pure bone shell doesn't support arrays.
The script uses string array to declare apk list I want to symlink.
So is there a way to use string array or make similar effect?
Here is my script.

You can use echo or cat command to wrap list and grab it with awk.
and add another for loop over for loop for getting the counted numbers to be used on awk...
Build your own Ubuntu Filesystem and Run (chroot) with Android
NOTE: This is an ongoing project for me so I am not done with this post,
Everything works but obviously room for Improvement. Starting with the Mounts in script, not sure proper mounts i should use.
e.g.
mount -t devpts devpts $mnt/dev/pts
mount -t proc proc $mnt/proc
mount -t sysfs sysfs $mnt/sys
or:
mount -t devpts none $mnt/dev/pts
mount -t proc proc $mnt/proc
mount -t sys $mnt/sys
or:
mount -t dev $mnt/dev/pts
mount -t proc $mnt/proc
mount -t sysfs $mnt/sys
???
Lets get on with it.
I was having trouble with corrupted image file or ubuntu.img that i made so i tried a different method.
I kept getting input/output errors.
Using a partition on my external sdcard and Mounting it back to the external card,
to hold the file system, instead of an image file, Mounted in a Loop device.
I dont have the time to to get into detail of the steps involved, I gotta get back to work.
If you want to do this bad enough,im sure you will figure it out.
My Tools:
Ubuntu 13.10 setup on VirtualBox in Windows8 Envirement
Sdcard is class 10 64G, however i have tried class 4 16G and 16G class 10 and it worked too.
SdcardFormatter: https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/
Galaxy Note3 SM-N900P
First
any sdcard will do.
Now im not going to get into how to figure out the "start sector" (mine is 2048 for the particular card im using) all i can say is,
if its a "stock card", and you haven't partitioned it before, you should be ok. If your not sure use SdcardFormatter to get card back to stock.
In ubuntu find your card:
open Gparted and top right corner select: yor sdcard
Mine is sdb..
(Make sure all partitions are unmounted)
Click on first partition then select: information...It will tell you the start sector, make note.
select: last partition,
Do same for last step: if applicable for end sector.
Make sure all partitions are Unmounted
MAKE SURE WHEN YOU DO THE NEXT STEP, YOUR NOT DELETING YOUR SYSTEM
delete all partitions,
select: unnallocated space,
select: the unnallocated space,
select: new,
select: space before 0, space after, (leave space for whatever your system or image size is mine was 3.94G) so i left 4G.
select: fat32 for file system
select: ok
select: next unallocated space,
select: space before is 0 space after is 0
select: file system ext4
select: ok
MAKE SURE WHEN YOU DO THE NEXT STEP YOUR NOT DELETING YOUR SYSTEM
DONT FORMAT ANYTHING
select: apply
Check information again, check for start and end sector to see if they match the origanal settings you took note of at the begining.
If they are different, use SD Formater ^LINK^ to set sdcart back to stock setting.
Try again after you do some homework on Partitioning and formating sdcards.
Make your Image:
Install Qemu:
sudo apt-get install qemu-user-static qemu-system
sudo apt-get install debootstrap
Make dirctory:
mkdir ~/arm
Or whatever
Then make another directory:
mkdir ~/arm/ubuntu
Or whatever
Go to that directory:
cd ~/arm
Then:
Make an image...........................Pick one or make your own size:
dd if=/dev/zero of=ubuntu.img bs=8k count=524000 >...3.99
dd if=/dev/zero of=ubuntu.img bs=8k count=350000 >...2.9G
dd if=/dev/zero of=ubuntu.img bs=8k count=510000 >...3.6G...........etc.
Example: for a 4G do:
dd if=/dev/zero of=ubuntu.img bs=8k count=524000
Make Filesystem:
sudo mkfs.ext3 -F ubuntu.img
YES THATS EXT3:
Set the Filesystem checking interval:
tune2fs -c 0 ubuntu.img
Mount Filesystem:
sudo mount -o loop ubuntu.img ubuntu
Bring in Base System:
sudo debootstrap --arch armhf --foreign raring ubuntu
You can change raring for other distros, such as stable, or hoary. look in /usr/share/debootstrap/scripts
Make folders for sdcard links:
sudo mkdir ubuntu/media && sudo mkdir ubuntu/media/sdcard && sudo mkdir ubuntu/media/extSdCard
Or you can use your own sdcard settings
Copy Qemu file over to Ubuntu folder:
sudo cp /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static ubuntu/usr/bin
Run first Chroot:
LANG=C sudo chroot ubuntu /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static -cpu cortex-a9 /bin/bash
Finish Installation:
/debootstrap/debootstrap --second-stage
Exit Chroot
exit
Mount some stuff
sudo mount -t proc none ubuntu/proc/ && sudo mount -t devpts devpts ubuntu/dev/pts
Start second Croot:
sudo chroot ubuntu /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static -cpu cortex-a9 /bin/bash
Set some Variables:
export HOME=/root && export USER=root && export LC_ALL=C
Create User:
adduser [PICK A USER NAME]
Set Root Password:
passwd
Add some Groups for permissions:
groupadd -g 3001 aid_net_bt_admin && usermod -G aid_net_bt_admin -a dad && groupadd -g 3002 aid_net_bt && usermod -G aid_net_bt -a dad && groupadd -g 3003 aid_inet && usermod -G aid_inet -a dad && groupadd -g 3004 aid_net_raw && usermod -G aid_net_raw -a dad && groupadd -g 3005 aid_net_admin && usermod -G aid_net_admin -a dad && groupadd -g 3006 aid_net_bw_stats && usermod -G aid_net_bw_stats -a dad && groupadd -g 3007 aid_net_bw_acct && usermod -G aid_net_bw_acct -a dad && groupadd -g 3008 aid_net_bt_stack && usermod -G aid_net_bt_stack -a dad
For Raring...........................
echo "deb http://ports.ubuntu.com saucy main restricted universe multiverse" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 428D7C01
For Quantal.........................
echo "deb http://ports.ubuntu.com quantal main restricted universe multiverse" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
For Wheezy.........................
echo "deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
Dont hold me to the last one you may want to double check.
Update Package Manager
apt-get update
Now you can add packages, these are some of the programs i use:
(i dont like to add all packages at once, i break them up because somtimes i notice dpkg error's when i try all at once).
apt-get install git gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential zip curl
apt-get install xfce4 xfce4-goodies
apt-get --reinstall install xfonts-base
apt-get install samba samba-common system-config-samba
Debian: apt-get install openoffice.org
Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install libreoffice
apt-get install tightvncserver streamtuner2
apt-get install xchat-gnome xchat
MAKE SURE YOU INSTALL TIGHTVNCSERVER..................Thats how you will connect to Ubuntu.........,if you want GUI.
Add permissions for sudo:
visudo
Example root ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
dad ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
(My username is dad)
Dont know if you need this or not i do it:
chmod a+rw /dev/null
chmod 1777 /tmp
To Fix SDCARD
groupadd -g 1015 sdcard-rw && usermod -a -G sdcard-rw dad && groupadd -g 1016 extSdCard-rw && usermod -a -G extSdCard-rw dad
Exit Chroot
exit
Unmount some stuff
sudo umount ubuntu/proc/ && sudo umount ubuntu/dev/pts && sudo umount ubuntu
Transfer your Image to Sdcard
Now Dump the image to Sdcard:
MAKE SURE THE EXT4 PARTITION ON SDCARD IS UNMOUNTED
My sdcard was sdb, so sdb1 would be partition 1 sdb2 would be partition 2
sudo dd if=ubuntu.img of=/dev/sdb2
...........If you notice below, it took 2.8 hrs to dump the image.
[email protected]:/media/dad/Development/arm$ sudo dd if=ubuntu.img of=/dev/sdb2
[sudo] password for dad:
8160000+0 records in
8160000+0 records out
4177920000 bytes (4.2 GB) copied, 10371.3 s, 403 kB/s
[UPDATE]
So far I have not found any problems using the copy command to transfer filesystem over to sdcard.
example:
sudo cp -rp ubuntu/* /media/dad/4920cacb-49aa-4366-8fb7-016b8e502406 (only takes 15-20min)
(Make sure your ubuntu.img is mounted in the ubuntu folder) using:
sudo mount -o loop ubuntu.img ubuntu
To Chroot it.............
With sdcard in Phone,
Connect to windows usb:
IN WINDOWS:
Open File Explorer:
Create directory "ubuntu" on root of sdcard
Copy ext4ubuntu.sh to root of sdcard (not in the ubuntu folder)
ON PHONE:
Open Terminal:
su
cd /storage/extSdCard
chmod 777 ext4ubuntu.sh
sh ./ext4ubuntu.sh
Ready to go.
Connect to Ubuntu:
Get bVNC Free from Market
In Terminal type:
login dad
vncserver :0 -geometry 960x540
Open VNC Viewer and enter:
localhost:0 for ip address
and password if you want.
Connect
Notes:
I was able to sudo cp -rp ubuntu/* /media/dad/912c45f4-b0bd-4e14-a55d-d8d9bcd4bd6a (which is the path to my sdcard), worked the second time i tried it.
( I mounted the ubuntu.img then copied all files to sdcard)
The first time i tried it i got dpkg errors.
That took only 20min to copy vrs. almost 3 hrs using dd if=
Here are some after thought I made note of, I havent tried them yet but u can, just let us know your experiances with them.
Some things you can put in a script to run after ubuntu started.
df doesn't work, there is no mtab file containing the currently mounted filesystems:
grep -Ev "rootfs|tmpfs|cgroup|mmcblk|usbfs|asec|storage" /proc/mounts | sort -r | uniq > /etc/mtab
if you can only run vncserver/Xvnc as root Try
chmod 01777 /tmp/.X11-unix
or
Fix Upstart
dpkg-divert --local --rename --add /sbin/initctl > /dev/null 2>&1
ln -s /bin/true /sbin/initctl > /dev/null 2>&1
