How To Install Linux on Android | 2022 Guide

This guide is needed because I have seen some people following tutorials for Andronix that ignore the fact that Termux on Google Play is no longer working correctly for Andronix. Andronix themself say to use f-droid Termux so that is exactly what this tutorial is about.

Thanks a lot, man!
It's important to switch off dark mode on some phones because it will result in display problems in VNC.
Also the internet browser doesn't work. You have to open Chromium Browser.
And if you want full screen, you need to hide the VNC top shortcut bar (the one with mouse and keyboard) by presing on the pin on the left of it.
Hope this helps someone.

Hi, i tried to follow the process, and while there are minor differences (i don't get the interface at 5:08 for istance, maybe because i chose manjaro rather than ubuntu) i can get linux to run. The issue is the keybinding are not working, if i press Win+Return instead of opening the terminal android take me to the home screen. I'm using an S8 Ultra. Thanks in advance!

This is terrific if you want to run linux UNDER the android operating system. Your instructions are great.
BUT. What if i want to totally erase my android tablet and replace the android operating system with Linux and turn the android tablet into a Linux tablet only?
