  3. Plug in a USB flash drive (at least 4-8 GB of space) with your PC.

Starting installer in VirtualBox

  1. Download the Android-x86 9.0 ISO image file from the download section.
  2. Launch the Virtualbox application on your computer, and start creating a new virtual machine.
  3. Select type 'Linux' and version 'Linux 2.6 / 3.x / 4.x (64-bit)' for the virtual machine.
  4. Start VM and when it asks to select the Host Drive, then select the downloaded Android-x86 9.0 image file in step 1.

Last step

As soon as you get to the Android-X86 installation screen, follow the steps below:

Note - Before installing on your device, you can go with the Live CD option in the installation screen to test it. Otherwise follow the steps below to install.

Note - If you are installing on a PC (not a VM) then the steps below remove all other data from your disk. If you want to keep your data, you must first create a free space partition and skip step 4 / 5 below. Also make sure that your existing partition file system format matches with the file system format that you select in step 15.

  1. Go to installation and enter.
  2. On the Partition Selection screen, select 'Create / Modify Partitions'.
  3. Ask not to use GPT.
  4. Now use your keyboard in the black screen, and remove all existing partitions.
  5. Once you have a single 'Free Space' partition, its time to create partitions for Android X86.
  6. Highlight the Free Space partition, and select 'New'.
  7. This partition type must be 'Primary' with 100MB of space.
  8. Highlight your new 100MB partition and choose 'Bootable' and press Enter.
  9. Then select 'Write', type 'yes' and press Enter.
  10. Again, highlight the Free Space partition, and select 'New'.
  11. This partition type must be 'Logical' with all remaining space (just press enter).
  12. Highlight your new logical partition, select 'Write', type 'yes' and press Enter.
  13. Notice the Logical partition name, and choose 'Quit'.
  14. On the partition selection screen, select the Logical partition and press Enter.
  15. Select the file system format (I go with ext4), and select Yes to format the partition.
  16. Select Yes to install the grub boot loader.
  17. Select Yes to format the partition.
  18. Wait while your installation is complete.

No GUI problem - Make sure your computer or VM has enough RAM according to the recommended system requirements, not minimum requirements.

VirtualBox no GUI problem - If you are currently running Android X86 in VirtualBox and cannot see the graphical interface (stuck on the command line), you should navigate to VM Settings> Display> Graphics Controller and switch it to 'VBoxSVGA'.

VM Internet Connectivity Issue - Go to Android Settings> Wi-Fi, and connect to 'VirtWifi'.
