Install with LiveSuite (http://www.flashmyan…eSuitPack_v1-07 ), make sure to force format.


Booting secondary OS (Ubuntu):

  • Make sure the tablet is turned off
    Press and hold the Power+Back keys until you see the screen light up (usually takes about 20 seconds on my tablet)
  • When you get to the log in screen, click “more” and type:
  • User: ubuntu
  • Password: ubuntu



ICS boots by default


Thanks:
