Question

Can Ubuntu replace Android on Asus Transformer Pad TF103C with detachable keyboard?

Answer 1

According to Asus Transformer Pad TF103C ubuntu android dual boot?

The tablet hybrid doesn't use BIOS, it uses droidboot for the boot sequencing...

As far as I've seen, there is currently no way to boot linux. The TF103 doesn't use BIOS, and instead uses Droidboot as it's boot loader.

There isn't much information on Droidboot with Bay Trail devices, or my google-fu isn't the best. Either way there doesn't appear to be easily accessible information about how droidboot on the TF103 works or how one is even able to modify it to boot different OSes.

There might be another option, though. Rooting it seems possible on https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/asus-transformer-pad-tf103c-tablet-root-t2802995/page29 and after that, you could theoretically install an emulation app to install ubuntu in a container.. Kind of like a VM.

Hope that helps.
