I have downloaded and installed remix os to a usb stick.
My laptop already triple boots ubuntu, windows 10 and android x86.
When I try and boot remix OS from usb it picks up my installed android and tries to use that partition, which ultimately fails.
Anyone know a work around?
Sory... what?
I didn't understand at all... could you please take some pictures of what's happening when you try to boot up by the USB?
I think that I understand cause I experienced something similar with two same installation of Arch Linux on same hdd (installation of Arch on one partition cloned to another partition). I think it is mess with same label for devices. If I remember good, label of partition with installed Android x86 is "Android-x86", same as label of your Remix burned USB. Try to unplug your hdd, than boot Remix from usb or try to change label of usb.
I already have android x86 installed to hard drive.
When I boot the remx os from usb it just tries to boot using the already installed android.

Yes tried still no joy. Booting from usb finds android at sda4, that's my internal hard drive android partition.

Did you try to unplug your HDD, and boot from USB? This is useful to determine if you can booting Remix generally. Remix is in alfa stage, and wont running on all hardware. For example: I can running Remix on my wife Acer Aspire something (Intel), by can't running on my Toshiba Satellite L775D (AMD) (so pity ).
well I havn't Done that yet, its a laptop with ssd. Just wanted.to try it out.

I have try android x86 4.0 RC2 on my EEEPC 702 8G and it is awesome!
I am now wanna try remix os 32 bit version.
However, it stop at the word "ANDROID" in console mode and not show the remix os logo.
Is EEEPC 702 too old to support? Is there any boot commend that I can try for?
Try VGA=791 and debug.
Having the same problem here. Tried editing menu with VGA=791 and 785 to no avail. I even tried VGA=312, which also did nothing.
I don't think the kernel supports the hardware, although it'd be great if it did.
Have you installed remix on hdd or pendrive try to install on hdd
I've tried installing on all media to no avail (SD, pendrive, HDD). It's definitely a driver problem because everything from 4.0 down to 1.6 runs, but anything above that api level won't run.
I'll look at the android x86 commits from that period and see what's stopping us.

Hello everyone,
I am having trouble with the new version of Remix OS 2 Beta.
I am running a 64 bit machine, and downloaded the correct version. I used the installation tool (not the original usb tool, but the one that allows you to install to the C drive) and it appeared that everything was installed correctly "BUT". When i boot i get the two options (Windows 10, Remix OS). I choose the Remix OS option, and it gives me an error (remixos/kernel error). So, i did some research and it says that the os might not recognize that i have a 64 bit machine. I then proceeded with the same installation but 32 bit this time since it should allow me to use that version if i have a 64 bit machine right? It allows me to boot, but then stays in limbo on the ASUS boot screen until i restart. any suggestions.
Have the same exact issue. Are you booting with legacy or efi

Take the intrid.img from the Android x86 project of 5.1.1 and replace that on the usb before install. Worked for me. Rinning Beta 64bit now wheni could only run 32bit before.

Run it off the USB. When option comes for resident or guest hit tab and add to the line (or e for edit) INSTALL=1
I have a 64 bit machine and it installed fine. I don't think I had to change any setting from the installer. Wouldn't work with the alpha but the beta installed and booted right up. When it was installing there was like an 8 minute timeframe where it seemed it wasn't doing anything and my monitor (an hd tv) was getting no signal but I just let it keep running and finally it came back on and it booted right up. I installed to the harddrive also btw.
Thank you all for your feed back. I will try some of your suggestions in the morning. I didn't think I would get a response this fast haha. Thanks again for now.

I tried both ways and and with efi just got the kernel issue. It seems that everything installed correctly but when I choose remix OS it tries to boot and I get the remixos/kernel error
This sounds exactly the same issue than I have with Dell Venue 11 pro (7140). It has Windows 10 installed and secure boot is disabled in BIOS. I can select Remix OS in boot menu but then the following errors are displayed Remix OS doesn't start:
error: 'ntfs' is already loaded.
error: 'exfat' is already loaded.
error: no such device: /RemixOS/kernel.
error: file '/RemixOS/kernel' not found.
error: you need to load the kernel first.

Yes this is my issue exactly. I hope this is only a minor bug, because I realise we are still in beta and all devices won't work the same. Please is there anyone who can help us with this???

OK maybe this will work. I'll try it in the morning thanks for the tip.
So far nothing I have tried all of your guys suggestions and have had no luck. Maybe this version was released too early, because it seems like this is a major bug

If you would share some info with us, we might be able to provide a fix :
In Windows, open Run dialog. (Windows key pressed + r)
Type msinfo32 and enter.
You'll see a lot of information, please list the following :
1. System type
2. Processor
3. Bios mode
4. Platform Role
5. Secure boot state
6. Installed Physical Memory (Ram)
7. Total Physical Memory.
Also tell which version of beta you used. 32-bit or 64-bit?

You have as 64-bit capable CPU, as detailed on http://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-Atom-Z3736F-Tablet-SoC.122214.0.html
So 64-bit beta should work for you. Don't know why 32-bit UEFI systems have this issue.
However I'll inform you as soon as I update my Grub2Win guide.

First the issues. I was not able to figure out how to set it up to where I can install Remix OS on my chromebook's SSD instead of having to use a USB stick. I also wasn't able to figure out why running the ISO installer tool that comes with the most recent download (yesterday) didn't work. I used it on a 32GB PNY USB flash drive, but after going into the legacy boot menu on my Chromebook, and selecting my USB stick to boot from, it was not able to find an operating system. Instead, I used Linux Live USB Creator (LiLi). I manually selected the Remix OS ISO that came with the download, and installed it to my USB stick. My chromebook recognized it immediately as a bootable OS. It even gave me the options for guest mode, and write mode. I chose write mode. The only downside to this is not being able to choose how large the partitions should be. Either way, it installed successfully.
The awesome parts. It recognized and works uniformly with my chromebook's touch screen and touch pad. Zero issues. It even recognizes some touch-pad short cuts like two-finger scrolling, etc. It doesn't recognize some of my keys on the keyboard itself, like volume up/down, and brightness up/down, but this is easily managed at the task bar. I also tested Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes to see if games would be sluggish running on a USB stick. I don't know about all games, but that one in particular ran as though it was on my Nexus 7. Super smoothly, with no issues. Aside from it being a bit sluggish running apps for the first time, (it frequently asked if I wanted to wait, or to force close Facebook and others - hitting wait works), I am very impressed with the experience. It's everything I could hope for in a beta android desktop OS! :good: :good:
PS, I'm actually running it right now as I type this.
I got it to install on my Acer R14 with a triple boot, windows 10, ubuntu, remix os. If you use universal usb installer and install directly to a NTFS partition on your hard drive you can use RMXtools to make the data .img whatever size you want. I did it for 50GB and have installed alot of apps and i still have 48GB left. I really like this OS.
Well I tried ubuntu on my chromebook for a while, but wasn't feeling it. I would have to put it on in order to install Remix OS to a hard drive no?
No just use universal usb installer and select non-linux installation and install directly to your ntfs drive. The expand the data file with RMXTools to whatever size you want.

Make your usb bootable with Rufus.

Is it possible to boot a linux live usb and install remix os on the ssd with Gnome disks?
There has got to be some variation in components with revisions of the C720P, because no OS I have tried to boot on mine has supported the mouse other than Gallium. If I install the GalliumOS kernel on Debian it works fine, but no idea how I would do that with Android. Your touchpad really just worked huh? Not for me, not in the version of RemixOS I downloaded from the Jide site last night, nor in the hacked edition or whatever it's called here on XDA.
My laptop Asus X8AIJ very old since 2005.....
settup on HDD,,,non USB
Win10 64bit + Remix os 2.0.0.205 with rooted ,,,,very good...but i can not settup display for as well
Hi everyone,
Unless someone has any idea, I've given up on this. I have tried every version of the installations for an old HP Pavillion PC (32bit). I either get the OS not being detected, blinking light of doom, infinite search for the OS, splash screen of doom and I'm sure more that I don't recall.
I even tried installing it using the INSTALL=1 DEBUG= to install it on a drive all by itself, but it only detects the USB slots and not the hard drive! I've already provided feedback to the Jide team that I'd like to see a true LiveCD to hard drive installation process like every version of Windows and the Linux distros where you can just boot to a stick and either run it in a guest mode with option to install or just an installer process that can install it to a clean drive.
Of all the systems (64 bit and 32 bit / laptops vs desktops), I can get it running from one stick consistently. I'd rather install it a drive and be done that way. Hopefully a future version will do it simply.
This might be a long stretch, but you might check and see if the disk is still reading as "active". I've tried installing Remix OS on a flash drive using their Windows tool via Windows 10, but noticed the USB drive would just disappear. Going to Disk Management/Partition Manager shows the USB drive as inactive, and works no problem when it's active again when I restart the system. If you're using the entire hard drive, try using a tool like GParted Live CD/USB and see if your disk drive is active.
Ya, I've tried that too because initially that did happen and I figured once I solved it that would sort the problem out but no dice.

is have asked in many forums but didn't got anything working.
so the whole story is, I own a Windows tablet from 2015 or something. recently I tried to install android x86 on it just for fun. I installed the BlissOS 14 x86 version and it ran great only that the tablet is overheating a lot and reboots. Now I want to go back to windows but what's going on is that the tablet is not detecting the windows bootable USB drive, it is only detecting the android bootable USB drives. every time I try to boot a windows USB it goes back to bios. i tried dozens of windows bootable tools and even changed between a bunch of drives nothing is working. please guys help me, I want my windows tablet back.
Update: I'm sorry to all who brainstormed on this, I am an IDIOT. I was trying to boot 64-bit windows into the 32-bit processor. Now everything works fine, Sorry Again.

Use Rufus software(https://rufus.ie/) to create bootable USB.
Bro,
Try Rescartux !
Burn it into a USB drive, then booting it!
Find a menu that "fix boot-stuff for windows"
Try every menu related to fixing windows Boot!
If that didnt give a Budge, U could try HirenBoot .
