Installing Ubuntu on a Nexus 10 Tablet

HOW TO ENTER FASTBOOT MODE ON GOOGLE NEXUS 10

  • First, turn off the Google Nexus 10 device. Second, press and keep holding the Volume Up, Home and Power buttons simultaneous. (Do not release the buttons for few seconds).
  • When the Fastboot Mode shows the START, test on the upper side of the Google Nexus 10 device you can release all the buttons.
  • Now the Fastboot Mode menu will be displayed.

Install using magic-device-tool:

  • git clone https://github.com/MariusQuabeck/magic-device-tool.git
  • cd magic-device-tool
  • sudo ./launcher.sh
More Info: Here

OR...

Install using system-image server:

  • sudo apt-get install ubuntu-device-flash phablet-tools

  • Reboot your device into fastboot mode and Connect your device with an USB cable to your computer.

  • Flash your device using this command: (NOTE! This will wipe your phone!)

  • sudo ubuntu-device-flash --server=http://system-image.ubports.com touch --device=manta \ --channel=ubports-touch/legacy --bootstrap

I never got this to work, maybe sometime in the future...
