I have a Pixel 8a and I just tried that out. It seems to work. You need to enter dev mode with seven taps on the build number and after that it's fine. Until now, I used Termux but it's nice to have Debian as I use it everywhere else.

I did find that apt-get locked up a couple of times but stopping and starting seemed to get around that.

I can compile a hello world so that'll do. I think that ed(1) is your friend here 🙂 @ed1conf

It's the Android Debian install running a terminal. I wrote a hello world program using ed and compiled that. It works - presumably I can just write the rest of UNIX from here.
