Virtualizing Pinephone Operating Systems?
#2
If you're on Gnome (or some other Gnome-based shell like Cinnamon or Unity), you can just download the source code, compile, and run as instructed in the README file.

You can run Phosh inside of Gnome/Cinnamon/Unity/whatever using:
Code:
SKIP_GNOME_SESSION=1 ../phoc/_build/run -E '_build/run -U' -C ./data/phoc.ini

The application menu will show apps you have on your own PC, but some of those that support libhandy will run inside of it and kind of behave like their mobile versions.
Apps without this support will simply open in a separate window like usual.
The reason is simply because Phosh is really just a Gnome shell for small touch displays.
Everything beyond that is literally the same as on a PC with a Linux distro running Gnome DE.

Edit:
In case somebody starts attacking me for helping you like last time, I'll add this page as an alternative option:
https://developer.puri.sm/Librem5/Develo.../qemu.html

However, I didn't test this method.
