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.

Is this video a legitimate way to get Linux on LineageOS via Termux or is there a better recent method? (lemmy.ml)

Updated my post I put wrong thing. Does it apply to LineageOS as well?

But thanks for that too. That will help with other devices that run regular Android

Thank you!!!

LineageOS 22.2 (on FP4) does not seem to have that option yet.
At least, it is not listed in the developer options.
You can find it if you tap on the search button within developer options (or just general settings, as that also includes results from developer options) and type "terminal" or "linux".
The (Experimental) Run Linux terminal on Android result shows up.
But after you tap on that, you see that toggle is greyed out. Can't be enabled.

I am interested in getting that to work, so any help is appreciated.
There is hopefully some ADB command or something that forcefully enables Linux environment.

I updated to LineageOS 22.2 yesterday. It has the option, I enabled it and it works. I'm on a Pixel 8, tho. Might have something to do with it.

No problem. Only Pixel devices currently have this option. No idea about custom ROMs but wish you well on your research
