It should be possible to install java and the non-gui stuff should
perform well, but the gui stuff might not.  Expect to reboot if your
java gui craps out :)

Having done the above then you can do:
sd
touch /userdata/.writable_image
reboot

sd
apt-get install aptitude
aptitude
****search for your java stuff
****install it.

!!!!DO NOT UPDATE the repository list.
!!!ONLY INSTALL what is in the current repository list!!!
!!!WARNING do not run "apt-get update" within your adb shell after
making your image writeable!!!!  You will end up with losing/bricking
your ubuntu image because of an initramfs update bug possibly related to
not playing nice with Android's Multirom Manager.  It would be nice to
see Android Multirom manager/TWRP RECOVERY MODE code integrated into grub.

I hope this helps.
