Phone - Debian running in Qemu

for the semantically inquisitive folk.

It's worth noting if you are using this on an arm device, this isn't a "virtualization VM" any more, as you are using the emulator backend, so this is far closer to a traditional emulator then anything else.

While the term virtual machine is extremely poorly defined, it could still apply.

also TCG is as slow as molasses, it's a good demo, not actually usable for much, at least unless it's a super beefy phone.

Neat! What are you doing on the vm?

Interesting running it in QEMU. If possible, it might be better to use a container if the host kernel supports this because performance and resource consumption should both be significantly improved.

However, an emulator provides great flexibility I'll give you that.

Cool! how's the performance?

I imagine it runs much more nicely than UTM SE on iOS. I was never able to get UTM JIT to work.

Honestly, I want to jump ship from Apple, but I'm not in a position to do so at this time.

This is cool but how long did this take to install? Would Linux phone OSes be better?
