Hi,

I came across this report on how to install Ubuntu as a dual-boot on an android tablet.
http://thevarguy.com/ubuntu/dual-boot-tool-adds-ubuntu-linux-android-phones-tablets

It is still apparently rather early in development and officially only works on the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4, Nexus 7 and Nexus 10. The Ubuntu community however has built images for other devices, including the Samsung Note and Note 10 and a range of Samsung Galaxy Tabs. You can see the list here.

Anyone brave enough to give this a go?

Regards,
Richard

PS: Gordon, could you drop me an email just to let me know if you got this. I don't have your email address.

  Hi, Richard,

Thank you for the info. Things do look promising, don't they.
 It appears that the "Galaxy" series is quite wide-ranging.


My Email address is: gors...@xtra.co.nz.

Thanks, again.

Best regards.

Gordon W.
