Minimum requirements for ROCK64 Android install?
#1
I would like to install Android (at least 7.1.2, not Android-TV) on ROCK64.

What would be the minimum RAM size and SD card size requirements for doing this?
Can I get by with 1GB RAM version of ROCK64 and 8GB SD card?

The setup can and need be quite minimalist, as I will only need to run a handful of very simple apps. Google Play Store is not required for my use case.

For reference - When I ran these apps on an Android 5.1.1 emulator set to 1GB RAM, I had over 325 MB of free RAM; and only 26% of 8 GB storage was used.
            - Similarly, these same apps ran fine on an Android 7.1.1 and Android 10 Virtual Devices in Android Studio, both set to 1 GB RAM, 8 GB storage.
