The Error:

when running the ubuntu install script (ubuntu.sh) I get:

ubuntu.sh[11]:cut not found
This script requires root! Type:su

what I have done so far:

Installed a custom kernel that roots the phone:

[KERNEL] SpeedMod SGS2 ICS [K3-16 CIFS ROOT / NO-ROOT CWM5]

I installed it using Odin using the following instructions:

that all seemed to go fine.

Installed "Ubuntu Installer Free" from market place.

I then installed busybox:

tried Stephen (Stericson) and JRummy16 apps from market place.

I installed the VNC viewer as recommended by Ubuntu installer app.

I also installed Android Terminal Emulator (Jack Palevich) as recomended by Ubuntu installer app.

Downloaded and de-compressed the image and script as per links from Ubuntu installer app.

I decompressed them to my external card initially but then moved them to the "internal" sdcard folder.

I also tried to establish that I had loopback device capability.. I found this thread:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1425888

And the folders mentioned are present.

I think that is all i have done so far ;-)..

I had a look at the script and the failing line and it seems to me if the "cut" command was not found then it would report that i didnt have su privelages even if i did.

I have many times ofer forgotten and approved su access for terminal emulator and busybox..

When I type su in the terminal emulator the symbol for text entry changes from $ to# ..

Anyone got any ideas?

Try running su from the terminal first, then run ubuntu.sh again.

Open the script up using an app, such as root explorer, and add the line su to the beginning, and try again.
