Will Graphene OS, Lineage OS, or some other operating system install on a Lenovo Tablet?

Edit: Its a Lenovo P11 Tab Pro Gen 2

    well if they find the drivers, and make the necessary changes from another tablet or phone that’s similar and suported, yeah

      Are there guides or documentation for how to do this for me or future devs that are interested?

        what I know though is that the device manufacturers are obligated by license to give you the kernel source code for the device on request, because linux is gpl.

        but they are not obligated to provide you hardware drivers and device trees that are not included in the kernel. you may still ask in case they care, but it’s probably rare they provide that. sometimes it’s hard even to get their kernel source code.
