Unable to get an Android guest machine

[Binome]

Hi,
I try to get an Android guest machine. I've read several tutorials and use different .iso files but I always reboot on a text mode console (like in any Linux distribution). No real graphical Android start.
Does someone know what happens?

Read Mpack's report here: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=92683&start=15#p464073

Following this report I was able to run "android-x86_64-9.0-r1-k49.iso" and "android-x86_64-8.1-r3.iso".

I still got a black screen at boot like that:

Waht could I do?

That's an Android support question. For that you should go to whomever created that install image, and ask them what's different about it. The known working Android versions were already listed above.

I've tried what you call "working Android". They're not working for me.

Android 8 x86/Lineage OS 14 x86 work just fine under VBox. I had troubles running 9-rc2 - it didn't work. Without a log file, it's hard to help you.

I don't think a log file will be any help here. It won't show the Android version for example, nor the existence of virtual WiFi, nor any of a thousand other things that could go wrong in a particular installer.

My Android version for now is 9.0rc2 64 bits. And for the virtual Wifi, I don't know.

[mpack]

My Android version for now is 9.0rc2 64 bits.

Which is not one of the working versions mentioned.

[Binome]

Now it's 8.1-r3 and I've got exactly the same screen.

[mpack]

Then hasten ye to an Android support forum.

[Binome]

Nothing else for me to do?

[mpack]

Android is not a supported guest OS, so I don't see what else we could do.

To the topic starter: again LineageOS 14 x86 works just fine in VirtualBox 6.1.4.

I really don't know what else to say.
