I found this netbook(?) somewhere in old things and just wonder: can linux be installed on it?

      If you can root your phone, probably some of them, perhaps many of them, but that probably wouldn’t make for a very good phone.

      Sadly no, because while Android is based on Linux, it is so far removed that the kernel is wildly different. Some teams such as mobian, SFOS, postmarketOS, etc. have got fair dinkum Linux running on android devices though.
