Re: re-purposing mobile devices with linux
Sorry, as far as I'm aware the only Linux you can really put onto phones is Ubuntu Touch. And that's only been ported to certain Android devices, not iPhones and definitely not really old Android phones.
I try to treat the cause, not the symptom. I avoid the terminal in instructions, unless it's easier or necessary. My instructions will work within the Ubuntu system, instead of breaking or subverting it. Those are the three guarantees to the helpee.
