An alpine chroot for android users (requires root and busybox)
Because I can.
This script sets up the chroot at /linux, creates a 10gb image and adds a shell script to mount all the stuff at /sdcard/mountimg.sh to run it, just enter the Android root shell and run:
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/barokvanzieks/powerbox/main/powerbox.sh | sh
and you should be done!
Because the alpine rootfs is small: only 3mb and the rest is just packages, plus the archive is compressed with gzip
Yes, openrc is available.
The alpine wiki should have all you need
at releases, 0.2 soon.
Yes.
The default passwords are powerbox for root and powerbox for the powerbox user.

installed gcc
installed powerlevel10k for the powerbox user
