So I was thinking about buying one of those Chinese iPad knockoffs with Android? Could you easily install ubuntu on that?:popcorn:

It has 1G and 256 MB RAM. Would touch screen be an issue?

Find out all the hardware and see if there's any driver problems.

The 1GB HDD or SSD *will* be a problem. Not large enough. You need at least 5GB, 10 is better.

The 256mb RAM is pushing it. You *can* run Ubuntu with that much, but you really should have 512 or more.
