Linux Deploy is open-source software that enables the user to install the operating system GNU/Linux on an Android device easily and quickly. The program creates a disk image on a flash card, mounts it, and installs an OS distribution. The applications of the new system are run in a chroot environment and work together with the Android platform. The installation process is done by downloading files from official mirrors online over the internet, and it requires superuser rights (ROOT).

The program supports multi-language interfaces and allows the user to manage the process of installing the OS. After installation, the user can start and stop services of the new system through the UI. The installation process is reported as text in the main application window, and the program adjusts the environment, including the base system, SSH server, VNC server, and desktop environment. It also manages SSH and VNC settings, making it easy for the user to customize the system.
