No hand holding at this stage as this is really for people who know what they are doing.<br \/>\nNote that this is the last of the pre-Alpha releases, intended for developers only. In around ten days I&#8217;ll post an Alpha 0.4 release with more\/some support and simplified installation steps!<br \/>\nFolks, I can&#8217;t stress this enough: these pre-Alpha releases are <strong class=\"bbc\"><span class=\"bbc_underline\">only<\/span><\/strong> for people who have already cross-compiled the Linux kernel for an ARM device and are used to having things not working out-of-the-box.<br \/>\nAnd no, it won&#8217;t play movies nor will it run XBMC at this stage, and you can&#8217;t play any games with it yet (no OpenGL support).<br \/>\nAlso, <strong class=\"bbc\">please at least read this first post COMPLETELY before asking any questions in this thread<\/strong>!<\/p>\n<p><strong class=\"bbc\">Present version is pre-Alpha 0.3<\/strong><br \/>\nIt has been tested on the UG802, Rikomagic MK802 III, MK808, UG007 and iMito MX1.<\/p>\n<p>These are the features for the pre-Alpha 0.3 release:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bbc\">\n<li>Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal armhf based.<\/li>\n<li>Easy to install and dual-boot (does not erase your Android installation).<\/li>\n<li>HDMI 1920&#215;1080 60Hz aka 1080p.<\/li>\n<li>XFCE desktop.<\/li>\n<li>Linux framebuffer consoles.<\/li>\n<li>HDMI sound support. USB sound support.<\/li>\n<li>Full array of cpufreq governors (I suggest the interactive governor).<\/li>\n<li>USB mouse, keyboard and USB storage tested. Webcam tested by Alok.<\/li>\n<li>nbench benchmark included (source code and binary) so you can check the real clock speed \/ performance of your Android stick.<\/li>\n<li>OpenSSH server included and installed so you can use the Android stick headless.<\/li>\n<li>Internal WiFi is not functional yet. You&#8217;ll need a $4 Realtek or Ralink USB Wifi dongle or a $5 USB 2.0 10\/100 ASIX or SR9700 Ethernet dongle to connect to your network. A list of tested, known to be working adapters is available in the second post in this thread.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"bbc_underline\"><strong class=\"bbc\">Download links:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong class=\"bbc\">The kernel<\/strong> kernel-0.3.img (&lt;10MB) <a class=\"bbc_url\" title=\"External link\" href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/open?id=0B-xyWOsjMDJPQS1vTVgwbmNTWXc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/docs.google&#8230;.QS1vTVgwbmNTWXc<\/a><br \/>\n<strong class=\"bbc\">The Ubuntu 12.10 filesystem<\/strong> linuxroot-0.3.tar.gz (700MB) <a class=\"bbc_url\" title=\"External link\" href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/open?id=0B-xyWOsjMDJPSU9hOWN4Z0JEVEE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/docs.google&#8230;.SU9hOWN4Z0JEVEE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>IMPORTANT: kernel-0.3 can only be used with linuxroot-0.3, <span class=\"bbc_underline\">do not mix<\/span> kernel and root fs versions.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"bbc_underline\"><strong class=\"bbc\">Requirements:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"bbc_underline\">To install:<\/span><br \/>\n&#8211; Rooted Android stick and SuperUser.apk installed.<br \/>\n&#8211; Terminal emulator in Android.<br \/>\n&#8211; microSD card (4GB, 8GB or 16GB) or USB key (4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB).<br \/>\n&#8211; A Windows\/Linux PC.<br \/>\n&#8211; <strong class=\"bbc\">RKAndroidTool v1.35<\/strong> (Windows program to flash RK3066 devices). <span class=\"bbc_underline\">This is the program you need to flash the kernel<\/span>!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 17px\"><strong class=\"bbc\">If you have installed a Finless Android ROM on your Android stick using the Flash method then you already have everything you need to proceed with the installation.<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nThe zip file that includes Bob&#8217;s ROM also has the RKAndroidTools v1.35 and full, detailed installation instructions, so please get it!<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"bbc_underline\">To use Linux you&#8217;ll probably need:<\/span><br \/>\n&#8211; USB 2.0 hub<br \/>\n&#8211; USB keyboard and mouse.<br \/>\n&#8211; HDMI monitor (Full HD capable i.e. 1920&#215;1080@60Hz &#8211; 1080p).<br \/>\n&#8211; An inexpensive USB WiFi b\/g\/n or Ethernet 10\/100 adapter dongle.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 21px\"><strong class=\"bbc\">Changelog<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; pre-Alpha 0.1: Initial release, requires microSD card.<br \/>\n&#8211; pre-Alpha 0.2: Simplified boot requirements. Can now boot from a root partition labeled <strong class=\"bbc\">linuxroot<\/strong> on any mass storage device accessible at boot time e.g. a 4GB USB key, a 8GB SD card in USB card reader plugged into the USB hub, or a microSD card in the microSD card slot of your Android stick. Also can boot from a USB hard disk (tested by Alok).<br \/>\n&#8211; pre-Alpha 0.3: Tested on a wider range of RK3066 devices, kernel source removed to save space (if you need the kernel source you can still copy it over from the pre-Alpha 0.2 rootfs file). Added cifs-utils package (SMB). Recompiled kernel with different settings, supports NFS V3 and V4 client, NTFS read\/write. Cleaned apt archive cache. Some extra artwork (wallpapers, icon themes) and various chess engines.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>http:\/\/www.slatedroid.com\/topic\/41654-pr &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.zhenglei.net\/?p=254135\">\u7ee7\u7eed\u9605\u8bfb <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[107],"class_list":["post-254135","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-lfs","tag-mini-pc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhenglei.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/254135","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhenglei.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhenglei.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhenglei.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhenglei.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=254135"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhenglei.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/254135\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":254137,"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhenglei.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/254135\/revisions\/254137"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhenglei.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=254135"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhenglei.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=254135"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhenglei.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=254135"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
