Testing Ubuntu Touch Devel Channel

Ubuntu 14.04 is best tools to test ubuntu touch on Nexus Devices. I tested for Galaxy Nexus GT=i9250 Maguro Device.
Just install by using : # aptitude install phablet-tools ubuntu-device-flash will grab all neccessary dependecies, to flash Maguro with ubuntu touch.... folow THIS UBUNTU WIKI straight forward.

16:13:24 [/ahu/adt-bdlx86_64/sdk/platform-tools]
x1123@ >$ ./adb start-server

* daemon started successfully *

16:13:30 [/ahu/adt-bdlx86_64/sdk/platform-tools]
x1123@ >$ ./adb devices
List of devices attached
