> The known Ubuntu Touch images run Ubuntu inside a chroot on top of

> Currently only the maguro and mako sub architectures are tested and

>  * this will tell you if the container is actually running and where you

>
> the command: android-chroot
>
>  * as the name suggests this will give you chroot access into the
> android container (note that this does not provide the android

> now you can edit /var/lib/lxc/android/overrides/init.rc to your liking
