termux / Proot Distro

A Bash script for managing proot'ed Linux distributions in Termux.

For now it supports installation of these distributions:

• Alpine Linux
• Arch Linux / Arch Linux ARM
• Debian Buster
• Fedora 33
• Kali Nethunter (rootless)
• Parrot OS (LTS)
• Ubuntu (18.04 / 20.04)

Usage example

Install package in Termux:

pkg install proot-distro

Example on how to install Ubuntu and launch shell:

proot-distro install ubuntu-20.04
proot-distro login ubuntu-20.04

You may create a distribution installation with custom name:

proot-distro install --override-alias ubuntu-testing ubuntu-20.04
proot-distro login ubuntu-testing

This will allow to have multiple installations of same distribution.
