mobile linux distros on raspberry pi?
#1
Hello boys and....... boys.

Curious to know if mobile linux distros (mobian, ubports, sailfish, etc) can be flashed to a pi 4. I could easily test this out for myself, but I don't have time to for a month or two, and have been very curious about it.

I don't see why not, considering it's all single board ARM architecture, but if it works, it could be an easy way for people to check out the distros before buying a pinephone. That being said, I guess calls/texts/etc couldn't work in a pi since there is no capable modem built in. But it's a cool thought.

Anyone tried or know whether not not this will work?
