Okay, maybe not so dull, but it was more hoops than I figured I’d have to jump through, but I finally got the basics all set up and working!

Plus, if you don’t have an external keyboard, I highly suggest the Hackers Keyboard app.

Edit 2, some semi quick testing…

    I haven’t bothered with the whole proot thing yet, how does all that work out? Like, how much space does it occupy to install and get set up? Including LibreOffice?

    I’ve barely got 3GB of storage left at the moment, unless I go gutting my main Android apps…
