linux-android: turn any old Android phone into a Linux desktop or a smart home server

This doesn’t look like another alpine vm. But maybe I misread the install script. I see it uses apt so some sort of Debian base? If so, no root, GPU accelerated, not virtualized, Linux on Android is quite the accomplishment.

It’s an installer for Termux packages. You can do the same thing manually in Termux shell, if you know the names of packages you are installing. And yes, Termux uses Debian apt package manager.

Thanks, that was definitely the missing piece in my understanding.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
