[you couldn't chroot because of that]
ubuntu is based on debian , just like maemo is .
and I have used the same kernel to boot both OS with no problems .
[Edit] I was wrong , ubuntu goes different ways than debian on arm arch.
I wrote my post that way as I was able to boot both debian and ubuntu using the pr1.2 kernel after copying modules and firmware to their respective folders .

and concerning the abi ubunt and debian go different ways.
otherwise you may give your explanation to why chroot doesn't work for some.

Intruction to patch u-boot are on:
http://al.robotfuzz.com/~al/maemo/u-boot/
Basically you have to git clone git://git.denx.de/u-boot.git, revert to bd2313078114c4b44c4a5ce149af43bcb7fc8854 commit, apply patches, and further modify include/configs/nokia_rx51.h.
Here is how appears mine:
I used a zImage from fiasco PR 1.3 image to have a flashable combined.bin, but it should work with power kernel too.
As you see the important part is that the default boot command is "run noloboot", so Maemo is the default. You see two script definition meego=... and debian=... (I have still to rename that to ubuntu) that load the kernel from the third partition and changes kernel parameters to boot the right OS.
So when I want to boot meego or ubuntu I reboot, interrupt autoboot and just type "run meego" or "run debian".
My SD layout is:
p1 -> meego
p2 -> swap
p3 -> vfat for kernels
p4 -> extended
p5 -> ubuntu
p6 -> further testing.
p.s. there are/will be other solutions that do not need an u-boot rebuilding, I just used the fast one without checking further.

for the one who said i was totally wrong
go(guess thats official enough if you don't believe me):
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM
and read
----
How does this differ from Debian's armel port?
The primary difference is the ISA and instruction set targeted in Ubuntu, rendering nearly all packages incompatible at a binary level. As with the rest of Ubuntu, typically the source packages are identical, so most of the remaining differences are the same as differences generally between Debian and Ubuntu.

My only concern is keeping over-clocking in Maemo and Ubuntu. Does anyone know of a P1.3 overclock enabled kernel?
