@sohil876, dalvik is basically android's j2me...it shouldnt need dalvik to run a core linux program like chroot..what do you mean bootable?ubuntu is already on the loose for mobile.. i dont think they will include dalvik,they will probably include something like it...if the were to include dalvik...that would defeat their mission to conquer the market...

Ive not being following android development lately but doesnt android lacks chroot and terminal app by default? If yes then wont the terminal emulator like busybox need dalvik to run in order to use a chroot script (assuming its a .sh)? are there other ways to run .sh scripts or android does support chroot by default?, then again i can be wrong as ive never used a cm build or tried to develop for android or mess around.

Actually i would like a pure debian linux distro on mobile like maemo or meego, the only one following this way is currently jolla with their sailfish os, its not debian but mer based which itself is based on meego CE, you should check it out funtikar its intresting too and its sdk just got released. *
