If you have an APF27, then it's possible to install and run the Ubuntu distribution (XUbuntu ARM version).

This page will detail the installation process.

Requirements

  • an APF27 with at least 128MBytes of RAM
  • a SD/MMC card of at least 2GBytes
  • coffee or at least something to do meanwhile ;-)

Here we go

  • if not already done, install QEMU (this will also install some other needed packages like debootsrap):
$ sudo apt-get install qemu
  • then get the [ Ubuntu builder script] and launch it:
$ cd your_armadeus_view
$ mkdir ubuntu && cd ubuntu/
$ wget http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/arm/build-arm-rootfs
$ chmod a+x build-arm-rootfs
