Someone recently showed me this: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.galoula.LinuxInstall&hl=en It's a turnkey installer which puts Debian inside a chroot, running inside Android. I only saw it in action for about 30 minutes, but those 30 minutes did involve doing an apt update, installing a package (mine, actually!), setting up a Unicode console, and actually using it for a bit, so it can't be that bad. People report having X working and all. I don't know if it'll replace a *real* Debian installation but it does sound like a good intermediate step if you don't want to reflash it. It does need a rooted device, though. > I also have an AC100. Got one of these. It runs two 80xmumble xterms side by side very nicely, the screen is extremely readable, and the keyboard is excellent, and the build quality is good. I use mine for writing, but I've done some coding on it as well. -- ┌─── ｄｇ＠ｃｏｗｌａｒｋ．ｃｏｍ ───── http://www.cowlark.com ───── │ │ "Under communism, man exploits man.
