Buddy ,

If U want to install it on MMX a75,how it will be possible?
The size of ubuntu is around 700mb. from where u will get that space?

Yeah ,rather U can think of puppylinux to install it on MMx a75.This is the smallest linux Os of size below 100mb

Ok brothers,

But will the poor ram of MMX be able to run that smoothly?
Also if we can install ubuntu on MMXa75 then puppylinux can also be installed
on our phone.This may give the best performance being the smallest linux OS.

Puppy linux is one of the top linux distribution just like ubuntu ,fedora,mint etc specially designed for
old pc which have low ram and outdated weak processors.It has almost every thing that a linux dist has.The latest puppylinux is of 129mb .It does not posses graphics like ubuntu.

If any one want to test it use YUMI linux usb installer .It creates a bootable pen drive for any linux dist.

as there no inbuild option for call-making in any linux dist.also, you may not find same no of free apps as in android market.
