I recently discovered my old phone and was curious about its possibilities. My Discord friends suggested smashing it or burning it, but I refused to destroy it. Instead, I plan to turn it into a simple laptop. I haven’t done it yet, but before I proceed, I want to check if I can run Linux (Ubuntu) on it. It’s an old Alcatel Pixi 4 and I’m using the Limbo PC emulator.
Imitating? Not exactly creating a chroot environment—just using a basic setup on a budget device.
