A Guide to Linux for Android Part 4: Managing File Systems

In this video, we'll be creating some more scripts for moving things in between file-systems. (I'll be posting the full scripts in the description below). One of the benefits of using Andronix is that the entire file-system of the linux environment is accessible. This makes accessing files easy. Nevertheless, if you are not rooted, you will not be able to reach the Termux home directory with an android app. To overcome this, you can create scripts that copy files directly to directories. This bypasses the limitations of a non-rooted system and is faster than using an app.
