Abouts

Penguin is a Command Line Tool to simplify the installation of Linux Distros to the Android Operating System using Termux as a Shell environment. Penguin also supports more than 6 Linux Distros see, as well as several Desktop Environments see and also Window Manager view.

For problems with graphics rendering you need to know that Termux does not support it however, don't worry about that you can still achieve it with the help of VNC Viewer you can download it via Play Store for free.

Notes

Maybe when you install a distro it will be fine until you successfully install it, but some distros may require some additional configuration to run well. But no need to worry about that, because you will still be able to use it.

Features

Binary Execution

Command Line Interface

Dependency

Does Penguin require additional dependencies? Yeah, but not much. All the required dependencies are all in a file called dependencies, you can read them with your favorite cat in the Terminal Emulator.

Environment

If Penguin uses the Shell as a programming language, does it require virtualization such as a Virtual Environment in the Python language? It can be yes or no, the environment here is intended to be a different situation because Penguin is typed on a Laptop/PC so the development environment means that you will never install it, just create a system file folder like {distro}-fs

Meanwhile, the production environment is where you actually run it on your Termux and, you will actually install it. If you want to change the Penguin environment you just need to change the contents of the environment file to the environment you want (production is set to default)

Warning

If you set it to development and run it in Termux it will probably cause permission errors

Installation

How to install Penguin? You don't need to bother with that problem, just clone or download the source code from this repository.

git clone https://github.com/hxAri/Penguin

Let's change give the penguin executable permission

chmod  x Penguin/penguin

Now you can run the Penguin like this

bash Penguin/penguin

Or like this

. Penguin/penguin

Or this

Next, please choose the distro you want to install yourself, and follow the instructions given, Have Nice Live!

Usagement

When the Linux distro you installed has been successfully installed you can easily run it with just one line of code, see below for an example of running it in the Termux command line:

# (distro) (mode<cli|desktop<lxde|lxqt|mate|xfce>|window<awesome|openbox|i3>>)

Debian distro cli mode:

debian cli

Debian distro desktop environment mode:

debian desktop xfce

Debian distro window manager mode:

debian window awesome

And below is the usage for distros that have more than one version, such as Ubuntu:

# (distro) (version) (mode<cli|desktop<lxde|lxqt|mate|xfce>|window<awesome|openbox|i3>>)

Ubuntu distro cli mode:

ubuntu 22.04 cli
