Running ICS and Jellybean simultaneously on same hardware using light weight virtualization called Linux Containers. Using same technique we can run any Linux based OS (Android, Ubuntu, Firefox OS, etc) on phone simultaneously.

Outline

LXC is a full proof mechanism for operating system level virtualization in Linux. We have done changes in Android Linux kernel so that we can run Android OS as an LXC container. Using same model, we can run multiple and different Linux based Operating systems like Ubuntu, Firefox OS, simultaneously on the same hardware. Video provides the demo of our work ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpIFByNLM5U ). Please give your comments/suggestion on my work, it will help us to develop further.

Requirements
