Just how impossible is it to get FreeBSD to support part of existing Android phones?
I have grown very positive towards FreeBSD on desktop, but since mobile phones are a significant other device, then I find that having Android there suggests that Linux for desktop that is also, except for some specialized domains.
Then I read about Pine64 and something.
But ultimately FreeBSD would need to be ran on existing phones, rather than building new phones, right?
But how possible/impossible is this?
Or also, is it worth anything, if most phone users are non- power users anyways? So they will barely tell the difference between Symbian or Windows or whatever. As long as it runs the apps.
Also, where can I begin to learn how to approach compiling FreeBSD for Moto G5 for example? Unless this, in fact, requires intervention by the phone company itself.
