Hi, i do not have any deep technical understanding on how exactly maruos works. i just looked into the components it uses.
when evaluating options on how to get a real linux environment on my phone i also stumbled across
the development done at

I have not tried it yet i just wanted to put it on your radar (the documented patches look very straight forward).

Best regards

Hey.
Yes, This is the code base upon wich I'm based for maru0.7 LXC3 version,

If you actually now something about LXC, maybe can you look in the maru0-7 thread.
The errors I encounter with it are in this thread

BR, Loïc

I have few phones that i use just as servers. I do not need them to display them something to a monitor. SSH access to them is all I need, cause I connect them to the network using android side anyway. So akipping the patches that copy xorg frames and output them android surfaceflinger so you ro have a full desktop, you just need the perspectived, setings app patches, kernel and lxc. If you know how lxc works in a normal pc, same work here. You get a ubuntu/debian lxc container you power on. This container use a dummy xorg driver to start xorg, the mclient - mflinger copy frames from xorg to android displays. Thisnis just in big words
