For do this, you need a device with Android 7 or highter!
-
Download and install termux - Termux | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository
-
Now, follow the installation steps to install Ubuntu in termux: GitHub - MFDGaming/ubuntu-in-termux: This is a script by which you can install Ubuntu in your termux application without a rooted device
Ubuntu in termux is needed because termux itself don’t run some Linux programs. -
Once you installed Ubuntu, download the playit version for Raspberry Pi, to check your device architecture, use the command
uname -m
-
Now, we have to move playit to the Ubuntu file system, in my device I can do this in the stock files app, like this:
Playit is probably in Downloads
-
Select the playit file and look for “move to” option
-
Now look for termux on the files tab
-
Now go to “ubuntu-in-termux > ubuntu-fs > home” and tap “move”
- At this point, we’re almost done, now let’s see if playit is in the right place! On termux, let’s start Ubuntu, go to
/home, make playit a executable file (this is only necessary once) and execute it, using this commands:
cd ubuntu-in-termux
./startubuntu.sh
cd /home
ls | grep "playit" # this command shows your playit file
playit="[playit file name]"
chmod +x "$playit" # example: chmod +x playit-aarch64-0.4.6
./"$playit" # (this one runs playit) example: ./playit-aarch64-0.4.6
When you see root@localhost:~# it means that you are using Ubuntu!
