TL;DR
- Google has added a tabbed interface to the Terminal app in Android 16 Beta 3.
- The Terminal app lets you run Linux apps in a virtual machine on your Android device.
- Adding tabs makes it easier to multitask, as you can issue commands without having to wait for a process to complete.
I have sudo on the VM doens’t make sense to me that i would need root on the Host
Right but think about it. Any ports open on the host are opened by processes running on the host. If a process on the host wants to open 443, the host OS would ask for root. Now think about the VM from the point of view of the host. It’s just another running process. If it tries to open 443 - it’s gotta have root or it will fail. It doesn’t matter what permissions the process inside the VM has. In fact the host doesn’t even know about that process. To the host, the VM process wants to open protected port.
