## Android
|
||||
|
||||
There is no Android detection. Termux reports itself as Linux, so nothing is
|
||||
found and the platform has to be named along with where it writes:
|
||||
Android reports itself as Linux, so the runtime is named from its own
|
||||
variables instead: `ANDROID_ROOT` and `ANDROID_DATA`, which Termux inherits,
|
||||
with `/system/build.prop` covering a shell started without them.
|
||||
|
||||
Detection then looks for RetroArch, the only Android frontend keeping a shared
|
||||
BIOS directory. `retroarch.cfg` is read from the app external files directory
|
||||
and then from the internal one, the order the frontend itself follows
|
||||
(`platform_unix.c:1327-1395`), and a `system_directory` left at `default`
|
||||
resolves against `<shared storage>/RetroArch`, where the directory also sits
|
||||
when no config has been written yet (`platform_unix.c:2836-2851`).
|
||||
|
||||
Under scoped storage those two config paths are unreadable from Termux on
|
||||
Android 11 and later, so on current devices the shared directory is what
|
||||
answers. Running `termux-setup-storage` once is what makes it reachable:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pkg install python
|
||||
termux-setup-storage
|
||||
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Abdess/retrobios/main/install.sh | sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`EXTERNAL_STORAGE` overrides the storage root for a device that mounts it
|
||||
elsewhere. A custom BIOS directory is still named directly:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python install.py --platform retroarch --dest /storage/emulated/0/RetroArch/system
