Yeah but it sucks. There's a button in its settings to install a Debian chroot environment; gave it a go and it bricked itself, had to clear the app's storage and factory reset it.
Yeah, I can always use the Android Terminal once. If I re-open it, it says it's corrupted, and has to delete and re-install its minimal Debian environment.
Probably because it's trying to establish a network connection, and it might be running a networking setup that blocks until the network is up. Also, it's trying to run networking with the host so it can run things like the storage balloon driver and mounting the host filesystem.
I don't understand this comment. Yes, absolutely. Alpha versions of software absolutely suck. The end goal is making it not suck, but if it's full of breaking bugs your can't just say it doesn't suck just because they're expected.
