From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hello,

just wanted to share the idea. I was thinking about installing Android on Laptop just like it's already installed on mobile. I know it's possible using Waydroid but It would be nice If we have a distro that provides an iso to install stock Android(or Lineage OS) so people could easily install Android on their Laptops. I don't know if anyone has already tried it or not.

Edit: Thank you guys for the suggestions I am going for BlissOS and PrimeOS :)
