Written tutorials:

Debian Squeeze:

1. Step:

Download the two files from the download section and unpack them.

2. Step:

You'll see a folder named andrinux and four new files (xstart,xexit, prepare.sh and boot-sque).

Put these four files into the debian-folder in the andrinux-folder by replacing the existing ones.

3. Step:

Put the andrinux-folder to the root of your SD-Card.

To do so: plug in your phone and switch to Mass-Storage-Mode.

Then copy and paste it to the SD-Card.

4. Step:

Let's switch to the phone.

Got busybox installed? If not, look into the requirements.

Got a terminal emulator installed? If not install one from the Market.

5. Step:

Open terminal emulator and type in

su

to switch to root mode.

Now type in

cd /mnt/sdcard/andrinux/debian

to change to the Debian directory.

Then type

sh prepare.sh

to prepare your system.

Got this? Perfect!

6. Step:

Type in

boot-sque

to power Debian up.

You'll see

root@localhost

at the beginning of the line.

7. Step:

Wanna see something graphical?

Install "Android VNC" from the Market.

Then go back to terminal and type in

xstart

and now launch Android VNC.

Now the connect settings:

Server: localhost
Port: 5901
Password: andrinux

Now the desktop should appear.

Tip:

Want a web browser?

apt-get install midori

for a lightweight one and

apt-get install iceweasel

for something Firefox-like (Ubuntu installs the original Firefox with this command).

8. Step:

Want to end your season?

Choose the disconnect-option in Android VNC and switch back to the terminal.

Now type in

xexit

to stop the desktop and then

exit

to shut down Debian.
