You could make your own Ubuntu image, just remember it has to be the ARM architecture. Don't modify the x86/AMD64 version :P

Is there a way to boot it using multiboot instead of bootmenu?

Ok, I managed to follow the instructions by MohammadAG, except I created a multiboot item instead of a bootmenu item (I used this guide). I used "p2" as the partition number, as in MohammadAG's tutorial, and not "p3" as in the other guide, because my Ubuntu files are stored in mmcblk1p2. However, when I select 4 - Ubuntu 9.10 blabla in Multiboot menu, I have a Guru error: "Can't find init binary in target OS".

I followed all the steps, I have no idea of where I messed up. Any help would be very appreciated! :]


Edit: I tried an ubuntu.ext.item with "p3" instead of "p2" for the partition, and this is not the same error message, so it is definitely "p2" and the source of my problem is probably elsewhere. :'(
