Linux (ARM) on Minix Neo X6 over micro SD

Hello,
I made a bootable SD card with https://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv7/amlogic/odroid-c1
I know minix x6 is not the odroid c1 but close to. Now I try to boot in recovery mode with pin so I get into Linux but minix doesn't boot from micro SD card and I only get to Android recovery...
Is this possible to achieve or am I trying something which wont work?

I also try https://wiki.odroid.com/odroid-c1/os_images/ubuntu/minimal and dd that img on the sd card. When android recovery opens the log says it can read the first boot partition (vfat) but nothing happens, Linux doesn't start.

Would I need to remove the eMMC memory?
Thanks in advance!

Mit Linux Deploy, Busy Box und Vnc Viewer habe ich die Linux-Distribution in einem Dual-Boot mit Android installiert. Auf USB-Stick. Alles funktioniert bei mir.

Sind Sie root In der root ist der Mountpunkt Dev Block mmcblk0p ... für mich für externen Speicher.

With Linux Deploy, Busy Box and Vnc Viewer, I installed the Linux distribution in a dual boot with Android. On USB stick. Everything works for me.

Are you root In the root is the mount point dev block mmcblk0p ... for me for external storage.
 
Use Linux deploy to create a file on a fat 32 USB stick or card. You can easily copy them down to save them or copy them to another usb stick fat32.
 
I'm here again today, the Apk Linux Deploy requires root of the x6.
Please have a look at the apk Debian noroot?
I don't know if it's still in play, I downloaded it from store Aptoide without x6 root via IBrowser.
But somehow the same applies here, you have to know, it makes Linux and Android more secure, only you install from an external source that means no more guarantee on x6 possibly.
This afternoon I'll try what this program bring?

I also searched a lot and flashed a Linux system. want. I found TWRP for the x6 and an armbian version at yadi. Unfortunately not more. If you want to use android and another one I am happy with Linux Deploy. The free versions are a bit older, but you can do a little something with them.
The question is whether you really need or want that Android is Linux itself?
First you have to see what is available for it, including Linux apps
Actually, you are only changing the look of your desktop. But you can also have that easily with a launcher apk in android.
 
Please consider whether you need original Ubuntu? For what actually? Are you going to the root of the matter and thus voiding the warranty of the device? If you really want to root, you can also install a terminal emulator in Android whose commands are almost like those in Ubuntu Terminal.
E. is just enough that belongs in Ubuntu Android to change, is also a Linux.
.Look in the stores was there anything for apk for android?
Then what would you need Ubuntu for? It's just enough that it works like Ubuntu.
You can do that in Android with an Ubuntu Launcher apk. Ubuntu Theme apk.
