With the latest release of android it now supports some Linux functionality. I got docker installed simply by following Docker's docs.
Any thoughts or uses for a mobile homelab? What would be useful to have mobile?
I dont think I so much want this for my phone as for my homemade AndroidTV boxes. Losing the Linux functionality after switching from Kodi/libreelec had been my biggest pain point.
Can't wait to see my TV boxes show up in my Beszel dashboard!
Can you tell me more about these homemade android TV boxes? I built a really shitty front end to "turn" my Linux based mini PCs into a media streamer but it lacks things like Chromecast and reliability haha
I wish all the logs at my company were as beautiful as these terminal logs
That’s super cool! I’ve been wanting to setup an offsite backup rig at my parents place and using an old phone to run it would be super ideal but I just don’t have any hardware that’s compatible with postmarketOS. Maybe one day ill bite the bullet and just buy a compatible used phone to do it with.
I'm assuming your phone has to be rooted for this right? Or is docker running without root? I didn't realize anything like this was possible. This is interesting.
Nipe! Not rooted. In a VM though
