Title: Ubuntu Touch on gemini
Post by: cam1965 on June 14, 2021, 02:47:10 pm
Just for curiosity. Has anyone installed Ubuntu Touch on gemini? And if so, Id like to know if it is better than   debian ( from Planet ). My gemini is not in use. It is left in my wardrobe with Android only for a long time. I am using Cosmo. Thanks.

I found a thread here https://forums.ubports.com/topic/667/gemini-pda/29 - unfortunately it looks like there was no real progress on getting UT to run on Gemini or Cosmo afaict.

Thank you for the information.
I saw that NOKIT installed Ubuntu Touch in gemini.

But some links are broken and the halium-boot.img is missing.

I wonder if this is the updated link for the rootfs: https://ci.ubports.com/job/xenial-mainline-edge-rootfs-armhf/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/out/ubuntu-touch-xenial-edge-armhf-rootfs.tar.gz - it looks like they renamed a bunch of stuff on that build server.

I can't speak for the Gemini, but as far as the Cosmo goes it seems to be coming along.
