Could you build this?

No Creating a mobile Linux distribution with custom Rust services, Wayland compositors (Hyprland), and cellular/modem daemon integrations requires deep Linux kernel and BSP expertise.

What it would actually take: The architecture involves customizing Arch Linux ARM for mobile SoCs, porting kernel drivers, configuring Wayland/Hyprland touch input, and writing native Rust daemons to handle telephony (ModemManager, oFono), power management, and sensors. It requires low-level Linux systems engineers, embedded board bring-up skills, and telecommunication hardware stack knowledge.
