Re: Installing
Hi John Check out this post for some info on UMPC and MID versions with download links. http://www.umpcportal.com/2008/10/ubuntu-umpc-ubuntu-mid-810-launch-time-to-join-the-party Unfortaunely Ubuntu-mid does work on MIDs yet. I dont understand why (Intel drives not available yet?) but thats for Canonical and Intel to sort out. Hopefuly very soon! Steve.

With the new Intrepid release, yesterday, do I just need to get the USB version of that dist. and use that to install it on my Samsung Q1 Ultra? Do I need to do anything special, or get a Mobile/UMPC specially cooked version of Intrepid, or will the main version of Intrepid "just work"?

It's probably possible to convert image formats (but I didn't do it myself so don't have advice on this), however you might be more in luck to try to rebuild a vbox image directly: virtual-mobile-builder is the tool we used to build the image for kvm; it's based on ubuntu-vm-builder and both of these tools should access as parameter the type of virtual machine to create. The instructions to create kvm images with v-m-b are at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Cases/UMEinstall You can try: sudo simple-mobile-builder --platform menlow-lpia-ume vbox hardy (I didn't test vbox support in ubuntu-vm-builder for a while though.) -- Loïc Minier -- Ubuntu-mobile mailing list Ubuntu-mobile@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-mobile
Re: problem installing mobile ubuntu
Sounds like a classic issue of improperly writing to the usb stick. To copy the image to the usb stick (assuming /dev/sdb for the stick), use "dd bs-1024 if= of=/dev/sdb". Writing an image to a usb stick is like filling out a grid on a checkerboard. If you don't give it the 1024 block size parameter, it writes one way (row by row), but with the bs=1024, it writes column by column. In my own early testing, I had ~40% success rate with just dd if= of=, but with the bs=1024, I have boosted that to %99.

problem installing mobile ubuntu
Hello, I have a Samsung Q1, I downloaded the Mobile Ubuntu release version from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/moblin/releases/8.04 I extracted the files in the image and also I prepared a USB stick for booting with this image. The USB boots, I pressed "Enter" to start the installation and after several OS messages the boot proccess stops, the last message was "will mount root from /dev/sdb" and that's all, I tried also with other image file that I found in http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/moblin/hardy/mccaslin_samsungq1ultrafull/current with the same problem. Am I doing something wrong? My Q1 has 2 paritions, one with with 30Gb and Widnows Vista, and the second with the rest of the space formated with FAT32. _ Discover the new Windows Vista http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=windows+vista&mkt=en-US&form=QBRE-- Ubuntu-mobile mailing list Ubuntu-mobile@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-mobile

This often happens on non-i386 architectures where i386 has built but the other architecture hasn't, or vice versa (because i386 is responsible for building Architecture: all packages).

Missing dependency when installing fsets on menlow-lpia target
I got the latest image-creator from Git and created a new menlow-lpia project and then a target. However, when I went to add fsets to the target, it complained about a missing dependency for mobile-basic-flash, which is installed by the ubuntu-mobile fset. mobile-basic-flash depends on libxul0d, and libxul0d depends on libxul-common. Unfortunately, libxul0d depends on a newer version of libxul-common than exists in the repository. The version of libxul-common that libxul0d depends on is 1.8.1.4-2ubuntu4, but only 1.8.1.4-2ubuntu3 is available. It is possible to work around the issue by modifying /var/lib/dpkg/status and /var/lib/dpkg/available such that the version for libxul-common in these files now appears to be the right one (that is, change "1.8.1.4-2ubuntu3" to "1.8.1.4-2ubuntu4" for the libxul-common package).
