[WorksForMe] an Android guest

[limestone_lenny]

hi All,

I experimented with an Android guest, using android-x86_64-8.1-rc2.iso. It works, but it doesn't take, resulting in only a live session. I've tried the available options, using my feeble interpretive ability, but at each start event I'm back at the install screen. Wonder if anyone can give advice on how to make it actually install.

thanks
GB

Have you tried going through the instructions?

I did finally find out the bonehead error I was making. After getting to work in the guest for awhile, It turned out that thepointer control was so bad that I had to dump it. I am working now with a satisfactory stand-alone emulator. Thanks for your reply.
