# Waydroid
|
|
Waydroid is a container-based approach to boot a full Android system on a regular GNU/Linux system.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
In Parch Linux there is a script called ```waydroid-helper```^PPR^ which can be used to install waydroid with a non-gapps image (an android image without google apps such as play store ) on Parch Linux.
|
|
|
|
|
|
For start you need to install the Script from Parch Packages Repository:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo pacman -S waydroid-helper
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Checking system requirements
|
|
|
|
To check whether if your system is compatible with waydroid, you need to run ```waydroid-checker``` script.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
waydroid-checker
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After running it you will be prompted with this screen:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Click on **Start Test** to begin.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After the test is finished, **if your CPU passed you can continue with the installation**
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Installing Waydroid
|
|
|
|
you can run the ```waydroid-installer``` script to begin the installation:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
waydroid-installer
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Post Installation
|
|
|
|
After the installation is finished you should init waydroid:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo waydroid init
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
after its done, if you are on **wayland** you can run waydroid from your application menu.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## X11
|
|
|
|
For running waydroid under **X11** You need to run ```waydroid-x11``` from terminal:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
waydroid-x11
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It would launch waydroid in your x11 session like XFCE, Mate etc... under weston.
