Root Ubuntu for the Volt

[Sands207]

Ubuntu just posted this porting guide https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/start/ubuntu-for-devices/porting-new-device/ is this a possibility for us?

Should be possible, last I checked when I tried to compile for primoc like a year ago it was based on cm10 though, which we don't have sources for since we started on KitKat. Doesn't mean its not possible, just would take a lot of messing around with device trees.

I think after CM12 is done this should be the next focus.

I was looking into porting Ubuntu for our device, but was really hoping that we would get some other people willing to jump in the dev scene.

Wish I had an extra PC that I could put Linux on and do some development.

I would love to help if someone could point me in the right direction to start out.

I have a linux machine and a github, honestly i just need to know how to set up the correct sources and repo info and i have the zv5 kernel and source code but like @whoshotjr2006 said the device tree work is over my head so I'm not sure what to do but i have space to at least give it my best try lol
