I have some partitions and I want to tell the system to mount those partitions automatically whenever my computer restarts. I heard that Ubuntu 13.04 has some great feature that have GUI to make the job easier, Disks. I tried to use it: 1. Open Disks from the Ubuntu Application Launcher, and choose the partition I want, let call it Partition 6. 2. Click the gear icon (settings), choose Edit Mount Options. 3. Turn off Automatic Mount Options and enter the information for my partition. Then, click OK I'd thought it gonna work, but it's not. I got an error about some wrong options when I mount the partition. After awhile googling around, I found a thread from the Linux Mint forum which tells me not to use the Disks utilities of Ubuntu, but modifying the fstab directly instead: Note: You might want to run the following command to make sure it really has that UUID number and that it is in fact formatted to ext3: sudo blkid -c /dev/null

Yeah, It's true. You can host your Linux images (Ubuntu, Xubuntu, debian, fedora...) in your Android devices and boot from it. Now with DriveDroid , You don't need any dedicated USB drive or CDs/DVDs which are in a special format (FAT...) to be able to boot from. Everything you need to do are some super simple steps: 1. Install DriveDroid from the Google Play market:  https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.softwarebakery.drivedroid&hl=en 2. Download any Linux Image you want. I recently host the Xubuntu in my Android phone with DriveDroid ( http://xubuntu.org/ ). And then copy the image to /storage/sdcard0/Download/images . 3. On your Android phone, turn on DriveDroid, select the image to let your phone host the file over USB. 4. Restart your computer (make sure that you've set up to boot from USB as the first priority) 5. Enjoy Note: You can host many Linux images on your phone with DriveDroid .

Today, after a while, I decided to root my Lenovo p770 which is running Android v4.1.1. I followed the guide from the xda forum:  http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2220275 Here are some issues I faced along the way: 1. At step 4a (Guide for rooting your phone (using CWM) and Google Apps (optionally) , install the   Root_by_javum.zip file : When booting to CWM, I saw the menu "apply zip from sdcard" instead of " “install zip from sdcard ", and the menus are in yellow or brown color. After awhile re-tried the 3rd step of the guide ( 3) Guide for Winflash recovery flashing, including CWM (Clockwork Mod Recovery)  ), I finally saw the corrected menu ("install zip from sdcard", and the menus are in blue color ) 2. Step 4b, install Google play: Have to start the 3rd step again. 3. After my phone had been rooted, all of apps stopped working: - I forgot to adjust the correct date/time settings. After set the right date and time, e...
