Yep. It's a factory reset to webOS only.

I finally got UbuntuTouch to load up, and MAN is it buggy LOL. I expected as much, but wanted to see it in action. As much as I hate Unity, it sort of works on a tablet, when it decides to respond to my gestures... Anyway, how would I go about installing apps on there? I can't seem to find a terminal app on there anywhere, nor can I ssh in.

---------- Post added at 02:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 AM ----------

Aanndd I reverted to webOS only, as I can't boot into CM 10.1, and UT is buggy as crap, but it was fun seeing it actually booting on my TP. I'll reinstall both when UT is more stable and is more feature complete for what I want to run it for.
[Other TouchPad Development] Flandro:
Thanks guys. Got it to work. It is buggy. But I'm amped to see where it goes.
[Other TouchPad Development] Shiggity:
Indeed. Once I know that it's working right and is as feature complete as the desktop renditions it's going back on there.
[Other TouchPad Development] :
I followed all the steps, just like I did with the previous one (Quantal). It worked all fine with Quantal but this new build doesn't seem to boot. After following all the steps in the OP, booting the UbuntuTouch option in moBoot results in a black, lit screen. I've waited several minutes, even rebooted. Anyone?
[Other TouchPad Development] Shiggity:
I had the same thing. What ended up getting it working for me was using ACMEInstaller3 to get CWM and CM installed, and then do the UT install through CWM, and it should work.
[Other TouchPad Development] :
I used Acme.

Btw, I now also noticed that most of my webOS stuff is gone. It does have a few favourite apps left but most apps are gone, including stock ones. It does remember my WiFi and stuff so it seems to have remembered something but most is gone. I know this is supposed to be experimental but this is nuts! Thanks for ruining my evening and Touchpad, mr script creator.

I dunno what to tell you then since that's how I got it to work.

BTW, I lost nothing on my webOS side. It shouldn't have touched that partition(s). I guess YMMV.
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
Yep! That's what I am saying.=) Not a daily driver yet.. And we are still running surfaceflinger.. Soon they will dump that for Mir... That... may fix the touchscreen issue.. May not! :D

Doing apt-get dist-upgrade... more files then usual.. going to recompile pulse and systemd.. they got updated.. They may have videos playing in the browser now. =)
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
Same here... lol...

Don't know what to tell him there.. The script only resizes the /dev/store/media LVM partition.. It's a fat partition. He should also have zero problems booting into Android... Need more information. LOTS of people have used it to install Ubuntu 11.04-Ubuntu 13.04... It has been slightly modified.. But.. lots of people have problems using it.. I never have, except with 3.0.5, so the script was modded to close more programs that are trying to access the /media/internal mount. Seems to work so far, otherwise the files that reside on the sdcard would become corrupt, the script echo's and warns you. Lastly, instead of griping, he should try being more helpful. Seriously.

You do everything at your own risk... He knows that. If he wants help, he needs to give us more information. That is all anyone can do. I do need to adjust the script to make the partitions divisible by 8.. But.. that should have zero to do with what you are seeing. What version of WebOS are you running?

I still can't get over how many people do NOT read notes on the first thread.

OpenSSH answer is already there... to whoever asked. =)

Also! If you install a Click App.... it will not run immediately.. you WILL have to wait for a cronjob that runs every minute to rip out the app-armor stuff since 2.6.35 does not have AppArmor!!!! I never run ClickApps.. so if your cronjob stops working, let me know..

Right now, I am been watching the browser.. been looking out for a download manager and gstreamer integration. When that happens, we will update again. Look over stuff.
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
Screw it.. I am just going to attempt to create our own AcmeInstallers...

I think I might have done that already because the App Catalog app was being stupid, but I'll see what happens.

[Other TouchPad Development] alex1301:
Does the Installer support the CM10.2 partition layout?
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
Don't know yet.. Is there an ACMEInstaller4 to support the new layout?
[Other TouchPad Development] alex1301:
No, but i know how to do it. At first, resize in Tailor Android Data so that there are 2048MB of unused space. Then resize Usb(media) and add the 2048MB. At last run the Installer.
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
Then it should be fine...

I saw something in the ACMEInstaller3 about resizing the media partition 2048MB if all new CM partitions were going to be created, otherwise it was resize 100MB from /media/internal and give that to /system.
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
We are using 2048 for Ubuntu Touch and 4096 for Ubuntu Desktop (optional)

ut-data is 1800

ut-system is 100

ut-cache is 100

We are not touching the cyanogenmod partitions or kernel.

I used the moboot uimage-extract to get the ramdisk.img from ACMEInstaller, gunzip it. mounted it with loop, made changes. Told it to create the needed partitions instead of creating the cyanogenmod and kernel and moboot, clockworkmod, google apps, etc...

umounted, gziped it back, used mkimage.. and it works. Same with the uninstaller..

You can see the changes in /etc/init.d/S90partitions and S99installation

Partitions

I have the partitions with the file "Create_Partitions.sh" triple boot right now.

how to uninstall this to make the Quad-boot? or just use the file! UbuntuTouch_UbuntuDesktop_Partition_Creator "to have ubuntu 13.xx?

Note: I do not want to recreate the partitions with Webosdoctor. Data that would lose many friends. not only in Webos on Android also.

I hope you can help me and thanks in advance.

thanks for such wonderful development. greetings from El Salvador.
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
Well.. run the UbuntuTouch_Uninstaller

Okay lets backup.. What other OS do you plan to quadboot with?
[Other TouchPad Development] lildark7:
I meant to Ubuntu 13.04 from "TouchPadBuntuRootfs1304f.tar". or do not need to install it from there? I'm confused with that. referred to UbuntuTouch_UbuntuDesktop_Partition_Creator "?
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
Do this.

Run the UbuntuTouch_Uninstaller

then run the UbuntuTouch_UbuntuDesktop_Partition_Creator (this will create the 4GB Ubuntu Desktop Partition)

Then install Ubuntu Touch

Then work on Ubuntu Desktop

untar the TouchPadBuntuRootfs.1304f.tar to the partition /dev/store/ubuntu-root would be like..

mkdir /ubuntu

mount /dev/store/ubuntu-root /ubuntu

cd /ubuntu

tar -zxvf /sdcard/TouchPadBuntu.tar.gz

mount /dev/mmcblk0p13 /boot

mv uImage.ClockworkMod /sdcard

mv /sdcard/uImage.Kernel /boot

sync

umount /boot

reboot?

After that... Sounds like your using Willcasts 13.04 ROM?

After that you will need to move the uImage.ClockworkMod from /boot to the /sdcard and move his kernel to Boot. I have not ran his 13.04 F (I plan to after messing with this, actually I plan on added pulse back to mine, stealing some stuff from his, and etc)

But yeah.. There is a newer FreeDreno that I want to compile. Read the notes on the first page, then tell me where you get stuck at.
[Other TouchPad Development] lildark7:
slower. please do not speak English unfortunately. I'm using the google translator.

referred to "uImage.Kernel"? where I get that?

it is a "Willcasts"?

not understanding all this:

"After That you will need to move the uImage.ClockworkMod from / boot to the / sdcard and move his kernel to boot. I have not ran his 13.04 F (I plan to after messing With This, actually I plan on added press back to mine, stealing some stuff from his, and so on) "

sorry for giving much can.

and thanks for helping.
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
I don't know the filename of what Willcast is calling his kernel.. Most likely its uImage.Ubuntu

Are you familiar with the /boot partition? and uImage files?
[Other TouchPad Development] lildark7:
clear that if. I am familiar with all this before using the "SmackMe2.1" but I wanted to remove it for Ubutu 13.04. certainly not for the reason I liked that my touchpad is too hot. then I saw this and test the UbuntuTouch. and I liked it. WebOS was only UbuntuTouch. but also needed Android. then I decided to have the four systems. the truth even dream of having or to install a linux distro called "Beini" but or detect the wifi card if the tablet.

a question where I get the Ubuntu 13.04 uImage.Kernel download the file from which do not mention any of that. install it from the smacvkme2.1 and only use the "TouchPadBuntuRootfs.1304f.tar"
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
No Idea! The smackme complicates things.. I will have to take a look. But not tonight.. When I do I will write directions or send you a pm letting you know. :good: I have not yet installed Will's rom.. so.. not sure what to say.

Hello all,

I come back with my TP after 6 months... and i see this topic..

I use novacom to boot create_partition for Ubuntu Touch, install cm10_30092013, and install rootfs via CWM, but i haven't any option to boot UT in moboot..

Where can i have the Uimage ?

Maybe i haven't understand anything ?

I don't use the cm10 file from the first post because it fail in CWM..
[Other TouchPad Development] alex1301:

[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
Sup Man!

Don't use the create partition script.. It seems to have issues...I decided to modify the ACMEInstaller3 to create the new LVM partitions.

UbuntuTouch_Create_Partition with novacom .. I updated the instructions..

kernel is in the cm-10*.zip file as boot.img. That is the uImage file that is uImage.UbuntuTouch after the install
[Other TouchPad Development] alex1301:
As you can see, none of the ways works.
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
novacom boot mem:// < UbuntuTouch_Partition_Creator

You should run that while the touchpad is in WebOS Recovery Mode...

It is a bootable kernel..

Then you install the zip files..

You do NOT use create-partition.sh

1. Copy the RootFS.zip and the cm-10.zip file to the sdcard

2. Reboot into WebOS Recovery

3. novacom boot mem:// < UbuntuTouch_Partition_Creator

OR

novacom boot mem:// < UbuntuTouch_UbuntuDesktop_Partition_Creator (Requires 6.2 GB of Space, for Ubuntu Desktop 11.XX - 13.XX)

4. Reboot into ClockWorkMod to install the cm-10-*.zip FIRST and the RootFS zip LAST

5. Reboot and chose uImage.UbuntuTouch
[Other TouchPad Development] alex1301:
How can I verify, that the partitions exist?
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
novaterm into webos...

ls /dev/store

What is the result?

Did you see the kernel boot like you would see when you run ACMEInstaller3 when partitioning CyanogenMod\Android?

It should look the same as when you run novacom boot
[Other TouchPad Development] alex1301:
It's working now :D
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:

you may need to run apt-get -f install after pulse

to install dpkg -i *.debs (I am sure you know that)

ignore maliit-server and ubuntu and unity8 debs.

pulse needs to be recompiled, so does systemd... I left patches.. or just wait.. the patches don't apply.. perfectly.. I am lazy.

First, do this:

WebOS back to stock & partition recreation

...follow that WORD for WORD. Second, do this:

How to install Android 4.2.2 from scratch

...it's a long post - the part you need is in the "How to fully install CyanogenMod the 'Easy Way" section (click the Show Content button). Follow that word for word and use the "A]CyanogenMod 10 Jelly Bean (CM10-2013/04/18 ) cminstall package" (it's the first of four options in that section).

The only twist is that after you download this package, go into it's cminstall folder and replace the ROM itself with the cm-10.1-20130929-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip available from the first post in this thread. Rename it to "update-cm-10.1-20130929-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip" and put it into the cminstall folder (it has to have the "update-" in front of the filename). Continue with the instructions for the AcmeInstaller3 commands, and you're done this step when you reach the sentence, "Congratulations you have now installed CyanogenMod onto your HP TouchPad, Have Fun".

Then, go to the first post of this thread, download saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip, cm-10.1-20130929-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip, and UbuntuTouch_Partition_Creator, and do this:

1. Copy the saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip and the cm-10.1-20130929-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip file to the touchpad

2. Reboot into WebOS Recovery

3. Connect the touchpad via USB and open a command prompt

4. Navigate to the path with the novacom.exe file on your PC (probably in C:\Program Files\Palm, Inc.\)

5. Type this in the command prompt: novacom boot mem:// < UbuntuTouch_Partition_Creator

6. Reboot into ClockWorkMod to install the cm-10.1-20130929-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip FIRST and the saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip LAST

7. Reboot and choose UbuntuTouch or WebOS or CyanogenMod or ClockwordMod - all of them should work now

Hope this helps!

PS: there's plenty of space on a 16GB TP to triple boot.

[Other TouchPad Development] jievie3560:
Hi,

I doctored my touchpad a couple of months ago and installed Ubuntu Desktop version on it. (NO android)

It has been sitting unused since then, untill I saw this post and decided to try and install Ubuntu Touch.

I started with using the uninstaller and then installed the rest.

Since android wasn't installed anymore i had to reinstall Clockwordmod as well.

Moboot shows UbuntuTouch, but when try to boot it, the screen stays dark after showing me the blue boot codelines.

I tried leaving it alone for 15 minutes, but no change.

Does it in any way need Android fully installed on the TP ?

EDIT:

It looks like you need CM for this :) Works after installing CM10

[Other TouchPad Development] adzidek:
I'm not 100% certain guys, but I think that UT runs in a CM wrapper so you need CM installed for UT to run.

If your running windows 8.1 x64 novaterm/novacom will not work I had to pull out my mac and it worked no issues instantly.
