You choose the release, mirror, and size of the disk image, and\naway it goes. It could take up to an hour on a slow device.\n\nThen it has a simple chroot manager that fscks your disk, mounts/unmounts\nthings, starts/stops sshd if you have it installed, etc. You can also then use\n‘apt-get' to install any package that is released for ARM processors. This\nincludes things like a complete real shell, Tor, TraceRouteTCP,\niwconfig/ipconfig, and other security and crypto tools. Works well with\nhttps://f-droid.org/packages/jackpal.androidterm —just run `/debian/shell` to get a Debian shell.\n\nThe aim of Lil' Debi is to provide a transparent and tightly integrated Debian\ninstall on your Android device. It mounts all of your Android partitions in\nDebian space, so you see a fusion of both systems. It's even possible to have\nLil' Debi launch the normal Debian init start-up scripts when it starts, so that\nall you need to do is apt-get install and any servers you install will just\nwork.\n\nLil' Debi works with as few modifications to the Android system as possible.\nCurrently, it only adds a /bin symlink, and a /debian mount directory. It does\nnot touch /system at all.\n\nRequires root: Yes, because it needs to run debootstrap, create dirs in /,\nmount/umount, etc.","categories":["Development"]}
