Hi guys so i decided to make this into a new thread and get it out of the Gapps one.
So I have tried many roms to install ubuntu for my android.
Ive downloaded all the files as specified in the ubuntu installer from the market.
I type sh ubuntu.sh
and this is what i get
$ export PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH
$ su
# cd /sdcard/download
# sh ubuntu.sh
losetup: /dev/block/loop255: No such file or directory
mount: mounting /dev/block/loop255 on /data/local/mnt failed: Invalid argument
mount: mounting devpts on /data/local/mnt/dev/pts failed: No such file or directory
mount: mounting proc on /data/local/mnt/proc failed: No such file or directory
mount: mounting sysfs on /data/local/mnt/sys failed: No such file or directory
mount: mounting /sdcard on /data/local/mnt/sdcard failed: No such file or directory
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

ubuntu.sh: cannot create /data/local/mnt/etc/resolv.conf: directory nonexistent

Ubuntu is configured with SSH and VNC servers that can be accessed from the IP:
eth0: ip 192.168.101.159 mask 255.255.255.0 flags [up broadcast running multicast]
chroot: can't execute '/root/init.sh': No such file or directory

I KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS *thanks to SUroot*
But can someone link me to a cdma desire rom that will have loop for me?
-Thank you so much guys-
-Liam:)
**EDIT**
I tried CM7 and gingervillian. Didnt work
 
Roms don't support loop. Kernels do. You'll need to post in the general forum of xda as more cdma users there. Ask for a "cdma aosp kernel with loop support" in fact that's your thread title right there
 
On XDA it wont let me post, help anyone, or anything. It says i need to post 10 things to other users before i can make a new thread. Well it wont let me post to 10 users. :(
But on the other hand,
do you have any suggestions? Ive searched for a CDMA desire kernel with loop support. Nope. Cant find anything. So now im sitting here...
Thanks for trying to help!
Let me know what to do if anything.
