Could you build this?

No Porting mainline Linux and Ubuntu to a proprietary Qualcomm ARM tablet requires low-level kernel development, device tree authoring, and reverse engineering mobile hardware drivers.

What it would actually take: Requires deep embedded Linux and ARM/SoC BSP expertise. Developers must extract vendor firmware/devicetrees, write and patch mainline Linux kernel drivers for Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 (SM8475), handle proprietary display panels (DSI), touch controllers, power management ICs (PMIC), and modem/audio DSP interfaces, followed by configuring custom U-Boot/EDK2 boot chains.
