Ubuntu for Android

[Chris Mosetick]

Jordon, great find on the Ubuntu Wiki.

James, Remember what I said about LXC in #ubuntu-android? I bet they have a
custom udev rule that is triggered by the phone/tablet being inserted into
the craddle/docking station. Theoretically you could create your
own<http://www.the808.net/linux/udev-auto-mount-luks-encrypted-partiton-by-uuid/>udev
rule to initiate the switch over to Ubuntu from Android that is
triggered by a physical button that is already on the side of the
phone/tablet. Then while in Ubuntu, you could create an identical udev rule
using the same button, to send you back into Android. (I'm unfamiliar with
the Nexus 7 button details)
