Oracle Cloud ARM64 Ubuntu 24.04 Redroid Installation

## Overview On Oracle Cloud, you can easily create an ARM64 server. This explains how to create an Ubuntu 24.04 ARM64 instance and install Redroid. ( ) ### Install Docker ```sh apt update apt-get install -y apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg echo "deb [arch=arm64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null apt-get update sudo apt-get install -y docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-compose-plugin systemctl start docker systemctl enable docker ``` ### Check external access on port 80 ```sh docker run -d --restart unless-stopped -p 80:80 traefik/whoami ``` ### Check OS information ```sh cat /etc/os-release PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS" NAME="Ubuntu" VERSION_ID="24.04" VERSION="24.04.1 LTS (Noble Numbat)" VERSION_CODENAME=noble ID=ubuntu ID_LIKE=debian HOME_URL="https://www.ubuntu.com/" SUPPORT_URL="https://help.ubuntu.com/" BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/" PRIVACY_POLICY_URL="https://www.ubuntu.com/legal/terms-and-policies/privacy-policy" UBUNTU_CODENAME=noble LOGO=ubuntu-logo ``` ### Install adb ```sh apt install adb ``` ### Enable BinderFS (required to enable the binder module) ```sh mkdir -p /dev/binderfs mount -t binder binder /dev/binderfs ls -l /dev/binderfs ``` ### Install Redroid ```sh apt install linux-modules-extra-`uname -r` modprobe binder_linux devices="binder,hwbinder,vndbinder" modprobe ashmem_linux (error => modprobe: FATAL: Module ashmem_linux not found in directory /lib/modules/6.8.0-1012-oracle) https://github.com/remote-android/redroid-doc/issues/647 ``` modprobe ashmem_linux will not be enabled. It was reportedly removed starting with kernel 5.18. The ashmem_linux module is also said to be optional. ### Start Redroid ```sh docker run -itd --rm --privileged \ --pull always \ -v ~/redroid/data-v15:/data \ -p 5555:5555 \ redroid/redroid:15.0.0-latest ``` ### Check devices ```sh adb devices List of devices attached emulator-5554 device localhost:5555 device ``` ### Connect to and check the device ```sh adb connect localhost:5555 adb -s localhost:5555 shell getprop ro.product.cpu.abi arm64-v8a ``` ### Connect with scrcpy ```sh adb connect 10.10.10.10:5555 scrcpy -s 10.10.10.10:5555 ``` Once you do this, the installation is complete, and you can see the Redroid emulator running as a Docker image. ![](/storage/media/379/conversions/ReOTR1EnzjoTrGqX904XDHTF0MCXAS1vPWWOK79P-webp.webp) Maybe I’ll write up all the adb-related commands later. ### Debugging binder_linux ```sh dmesg | grep binder ``` If you want to check whether binder_linux and Android are connected properly, you can view the logs with this command.
