I start this kind of tutorial for installing #postmarketOS #linux distribution on #xiaomi ( #小米 ) Redmi S2.
It's linux, so I advice to ask help to #lug ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_user_group ), read documentation, ask questions in user's forums, etc... GNU/Linux is nothing without its community.
The photos show

Very important to read.

You'll need a computer with #linux
And install #pmbootstrap a system which generate a specialised postmarketOS version depending on the phone and your choices, and then flashes (puts linux in the phone when the phone is plugged to computer via usb cable).
Some people here explain better than me what is #flashing.
Long version is here :)

We'll flash with #postmarketOS tools.
