I think there's a misunderstanding here: Android /is/ Linux. It was
running Linux before you installed that thing on it.

What you've got is basically the Debian package manager and maybe some
extra userspace tools. These are talking to a Linux kernel like they
would on a normal Debian installation, only instead of the
Debian-supplied Linux kernel it's got whatever kernel your Android
variant comes with.

You could try pulling a similar trick with the OpenBSD package manager
and userspace tools by porting them to Linux, but I think this'd be a
lot more trouble than it's worth.

Porting OpenBSD kernel and all to the device would be a very significant
undertaking, requiring the reverse engineering of drivers from Linux
sources, etc.
