The 50-rules at the top referring to 18d1 is for the google nexus, which makes the rule unnecessary. The 90-rules referring to 4e8 is where the udev actually uses the rule to recognize the samsung.

Amazing tutorial. Thank you thank you thank you! I’ve been trying to figure out how to get Debian on my phone for a long time, and this was very helpful pointing me to what I needed to do.

Hi. It is good tutorial, thanx!
I want to try it on my Galaxy Spica. What do you think about it? I can’t see any steps specified to Galaxy and which can break my phone. I really want to hear your opinion about it =)
Also i’m intersted about aircrack on it. Did you try it?
Sorry for my english ;)

Hi all,
I have a problem with some steps. I managed to have a root access (everything went without a glitch) but now when I try to install busybox, I have a problem. When i try

mkdir -p $bin

i get an error = read only file system

also when I do a ls -la i get

-la No Such File Or Directory

It seems that my firmware is a little shorter on commands (IG8 FW). Any ideas?

@fiasko

Désolé pour le retard de cette réponse. J’ai cru comprendre sur un forum que tu avais finalement réussi à installer la debian ;)

Si tu as toujours besoin d’aide, n’hésite pas à m’envoyer un mail.

Cheers,

In first thanks for your tuto!

I had tried but without succes for moment…

I have some errors when i trying to copy the file (in the mounted image) to my external sd card(ext2)..some errors appears.

What is the difference between those 2 things?:
-copy files directly from /mnt/ directory to external sd by just copy/paste (i suppose?)
-extract and copy files to external sd with this command line :(cd /mnt/ && tar cfp – . ) | (cd /media/disk/ && tar xvpf -)

If i had understand i can also copy files by adb push command line.But to internal sd card in ext2??

The “weight” of files in my external sd after copying is about 350 Mo and you?

Finaly what i’m doing wrong??

thanks and sorry for my bad english !
