Hi Everyone,

We are looking for vehicle purpose built tablets for the purpose of Telematics devices to add to our GPS Tracking solution catalogue.

Currently the device operates on Android 12, which can be upgraded to Android 14. But we want to completely erase Android from the Tablets, and create our own Linux based solution.

If so, can you advise on what Linux Distros, Kernels, etc. can be installed, and how to perform the installation, including drivers for Bluetooth, WiFi, Serial Ports, etc. please.

Thank you in advance,

Michael
