Waydorid:
"A container-based approach to boot a full Android system on regular GNU/Linux systems running Wayland based desktop environments."
- Issues: Uses older verison of Lineage, need to find out how to Upgrade the the latest version.
- Drodian Waydroid app crashes, never installs waydroid?
- How do I install MicroG ? Do I instead use Lineage OS for MicroG?
- Does eSIM work?
LXC:
Can install kubernetes / docker on LXC and run lite dev applications. * Can it run lxc , install qemu , then install BlissOS ? * Distrobuilder & github , custom LXC apps.
Other Issues:
- Many Flatpak apps and desktop apps never launch, they are looking for x86 architecture or dekstop utlitiy that doesnt exist.
- Need a specialized repo for aptitude and Flatpaks that are modified to work on Mobian.
