Installing Linux 4 Switch (L4S) ​

Linux 4 Switch is a sister project to Switchroot Android--it uses a similar kernel but provides a variety of Linux distributions.

WARNING

Have you partitioned your microSD card?

This page assumes that you've followed our guide to partition your microSD card for a Linux setup. If you didn't do so yet, please follow this page.

Installation ​

Click the following link to continue to the official Switchroot documentation for installing an L4S Linux distribution (external link):

TIP

Install a Linux Distribution

  • Note: You can skip the partitioning mentioned in the Switchroot documentation. You already did this during the guide and do not have to do so again.

If you already have Linux fully installed, do not follow this guide, as your current installation would be erased.

INFO

Looking for Arch?

Unfortunately, L4S Arch Linux is deprecated following an xorg ABI change that breaks compatibility with the Tegra210 BSP.
