Preparations

Make sure you have set up the repositories
Have desktop with Wayland session or install weston
You must have kernel desktop 6.6.14 or posterior
Install waydroid package, it should be waydroid-1.4.2-3 or posterior for mageia 9, because previous version requires dkms-anbox and could make your system not boot, also make sure lxc version you get is lxc-5.0.3-1.mga9 and you not have the previous version in the system see the erratas.

Modify the kernel options to boot kernel desktop 6.6 with the option psi=1.

Configuration

First make sure you boot with psi=1 in the kernel options


As root, start the container

systemctl start waydroid-container

As user run

waydroid first-launch

It's recommended the GAPPS image but test what works for you

If all works fine, the waydroid window should start automatically !

If you permanently add psi=1 to kernel options perhaps you like to start automatically waydroid-container

As root run

systemctl enable waydroid-container

For future use, you could use the launchers in the menu.

Note:
If you not use a desktop with Wayland session you must run weston and run from weston prompt waydroid first-launch, and for future use you must run waydroid show-full-ui from weston prompt

External links

Arch Linux have good information about waydroid, I believe you just need to read from Installation section
