I'm trying to install Android-x86 on USB for my new HP laptop. I have followed the instructions on Android-x86.org. My issue is that after the initial install, it never boots again, it just gets stuck on the Android logo.
I have seen a few posts such as this answer:
when you change the internal frame where the UEFI firmware settings to the EFI framework setting change the boot order you have to make a small partition for grub go back and change it back otherwise it won't boot the second time
but unsure of how to do this.
I have also seen this answer:
- In boot menu select
Installation - Install Android-x86 to harddisk
- In
Choose Partition
menu selectCreate/Modify partitions
- In
Do you want to use GPT
question selectNo
cfdisk
program will open- Select
New
and selectPrimary
as partition type, set size to100
MB and select Beginning- Select bootable. Now the
Flags
column should sayBoot
for the new partition- Select the free space and select
New
and selectPrimary
as partition type, leave size as default to fill the remaining free space- Select
Write
and typeyes
and press Enter- Select
Quit
but I'm stuck in the fact when I click on create/modify on this, I get cgdisk
not cfdisk
, and it's not as easy to use. I don't know why this is happening. Before I realised what to do, I was accessing cfdisk
, but now it's only cgdisk
.
I have purchased 4 premium USB sticks just in case the issue was due to a bad USB, but it's not the case and I'm just so frustrated.
Any help at all would really be appreciated.
