Hello,
i would like to watch some maxdome, netflix etc. films and series in a place, we haven't got internet. Because you can't download videos for offline using on pc, I thought i can install Remix OS on a external Harddrive, install apps like maxdome to download films at home and watch it offline. It works, but you only have nearly 4 gb internal storage on this operating system. I found a tutorial on how to increase the internal storage, but this only works on harddrives formatted to NTFS. And you can't install Remix OS on a NTFS formatted external harddrive, can you?. Is there any way to increase the internal storage on FAT32? Will the developers of Remix OS increase the internal storage in the future?(Because it's only Alpha so far) Another problem is, that when i when I connect the laptop to the TV with HDMI, it only transfers the video, but no audio. Will this be fixed in the future?
Sorry, my english is not the best
I am trying to find a way to increase the "data.img" file that is generated on the USB stick... If I can't figure it how, the only option is installing on the HD and make the tuto's.
And I think its possible to install on an external drive and use the whole space. Gonna figure it out how 4 us, okay? \รต/
I think that the HDMI problem will be solved on the next updates. Anyway, its still on Alpha...
While its not solved, we can always use an P2-P2 audio cable ... haha.
The FAT32 file system has a limitation of 4GB files. There's no way to have a bigger data.img without making your flash drive NTFS

Hey
After a while searching and studying about this, I realised that I couldn't make it on the pendrive.
BUT
i successfully installed the OS on my SSD ( OMG, such fast booting ). I split my SSD, formatted to EXT4 and installed, and BOOM! 12 gigs of internal storage.
What does it mean? It means that you can install on a flash drive, such as USB stick or External HD, formatting as EXT4 partition, and run from there.
I'll make some tutos ASAP, teaching how to make those tricky stuff.

I think you can't.
But, you can install on another USB Stick.
This weekend is "Carnaval" in Brazil (National Holiday). I'll try to make one video explaining 4 u, okay?
[EDIT] Sorry, I'm gonna be a little busy this weekend. What you can do at all is to install the iso normally in a USB Stick, run it with the "INSTALL=1" parameter, format another USB with EXT4 and install it on the stick. You should get it with the internal storage as the size as the USB stick.
I didn't tried it yet, but its a possibility.
Let me know if you're gonna do this.

Just install normally the ISO on a USB sitck and boot it normally. When it appears for you select on the both modes ( resident and some other ), you press "E" on your keyboard, to edit the command line. There, you put INSTALL=1 parameter. Then , you'll install it normally, just selecting the right stick.

Will it install grub to the USB. I dont want to overwrite grub on my HDD. Currently I have managed to have a USB formated with ext4 and swap, and was able to use unetbootin to put install files on. I dont use the install option as I havent used the two usb as you have here. I do have a full install on my internal ssd and have 56 gb to play with but would like to have a usb that can boot on any computer with the ability to access more than 4gb. I have tried a few ways and if it doesnt mess with the bootloader on my ssd then id be happy to know that.

I discovered somethings with my notebook. Its an Asus X550LN, and the BIOS is as secure as hell. So, I had to search on the partitions created the GRUB that the installer says it was installed. And my BIOS just read one type of File System ( I don't remember it right now, but its the one that Windows uses, not Ubuntu ). When I found the GRUB bootloader on another partition, i just copied the files from one partition to another, added a boot option for it to reach the bootloader and BOOM, "chooseable dual-booted". Yeah, its hard because I have to enter in the BIOS everytime I want the other OS, but its a step. LoL.
Anyway, I think you should try to make a 400MB Partition to install the bootloader on the stick, and the space left just format as ext4 and install the RemixOS there.
Yeah... I don't know if you understand what I'm saying.... It can be confusing, but its perfectly clear on my mind. :silly:
I really need to make a video explaining everything... ASAP.

I can dual boot etc. I can do this through Ubuntu by editing the grub command, I have not tried using the REMIX bootloader because it will overwrite the one I am currently using. I have managed to have dual partitions on my stick, but alas cannot boot to the partition needed. Do you have any idea how to edit the lines for booting to the ext 4 on the stick? Its a little different than my Ubuntu grub edit and it just wonte see the secondary partition. Install went fine i look at the files and it's all there just cant figure out hot to edit the current boot config to boot proper -partition.
Thanks and totally get ya. :silly::laugh:

I was going to tell you to use TWRP, but I see it doesn't format, yet. So, here's what I have done in the past. I use gparted in LINUX. Now, my laptop and netbook are dual boot, Win/LINUX. If you don't want to install LINUX, go download a live LINUX distro and burn it to CD or DVD, whichever it takes. I've used Ubuntu for this and it's what I have on my laptop and netbook. Then, after you burn it as an iso, put it in your computer and reboot into it. gparted is found under the Administrative on the taskbar. I generally will put my microsd into a reader and plug it into my computer. Sometimes your reader will show up on the desktop, but if not, just go to Places on the on the taskbar, and click My Computer. If you need more help, give me a shout.

not sure what utilities windows has for ext4 partition formatting. perhaps a google search might turn up something useful? i know in ubuntu, as stated above, gparted works well. another option to the ubuntu live cd and the dual booting ubuntu is to run a VM of ubuntu. just to add another option!

long manual process:
grab the arm compiled ext4 formatting binary used in amonra recovery off his github and manually run the commands. the commands should be found in his github source .. can prob grep for the format menu (usually in recovery.c or recovery_ui.c for a starting point) and follow the menu logic out to the exact command being sent to the ext4 formatting binary along with the arguments.
hope that might help those wanting to manually format ext4 partitions on their sdcard!
The only way that I've found to allow Windows to recognize more than just the first listed SD partition is to install drivers to make the card a Local Disk instead of a Removable Disk.
This would be extremely useful for users who run the SD version of CM7, where the image creates a four partitions with the 4th being all of your user data.
Here is the tutorial on how to modify and install the Local Disk drivers:
http://www.getusb.info/usb-hack-turn-a-usb-stick-into-a-hard-drive-or-local-disk/
In theory, if you use a USB to SD adapter, this should work, but it's not working for me. I thought all XP drivers were compatible with Windows 7, but maybe that isn't correct.
Anyone else want to give it a shot?
Ahh, the old hitachi drivers. I posted a guide about them some weeks ago. They will work on Windows 7, just not the 64bit version of it. Where exactly are you having problems with it?
Sent from my 8086 using xda retrograde.
I have problems exactly where you say. It seems that the drivers aren't compatible with my 64bit operating system.
Any chance I could modify the driver to make it work?

What happens if you install a 32-bit Windows XP virtual machine on you 64-bit system. Would that allow you to use XP the drivers?
I don't have an XP .iso handy at the moment to run in VirtualBox, but I'm going to test this on an XP OS and a Windows 7 x86 OS within a day or two.

Except I didn't pay Micro$oft the big bucks for Professional or Ultimate. I'm running Home Premium on my desktop which doesn't allow XP Mode. Stupid Windows...
I will check it using another OS shortly.
If you're going to use a virtual machine, then why don't you just use Ubuntu? It will mount everything just fine.

Because they want a solution which doesn't require dual booting and is immediately available. Unfortunately the crap support for other file systems will continue to be a big problem for them. (EDIT: Or did you mean to run Ubuntu in a virtual machine?)
Running Ubuntu or PC-BSD or any other more FS robust OS in Oracle's VirtualBox (which is free and relatively easy to use) is probably the best solution for many here.
I know all partitions and all file systems mount in Ubuntu, but the point of this is to get multiple partitions to be readable/writable in Windows, since the majority of users run this as their main OS. The idea of running XP in a virtual machine was simply to check and see if the drivers were compatible; the idea was not meant to be a permanent solution.
As for Windows mounting Linux file systems (Ext2 and Ext3 specifically), this would be my next step. I believe the solution does exist. Check out the freeware Ext2IFS and ExtFsd if you're interested. I haven't gotten the chance to try them because I'd like to get multiple Microsoft partitions readable first.
Anyway, after trying a USB drive and a SD card in an MMC reader on both a 32bit Windows 7 Home and XP Home this morning, I have not been successful.
I can confirm that the USB Local Disk drivers are in fact compatible with both of these operating systems, but Windows is still recognizing the drives at Removable Disks instead of Local Disks. I will try to work on it a bit more in a little while.
Total Commander has support for ext bases file systems.
So, can cm7 use an ext sd file system just like fat 32?

I believe so. In fact, the SD card version of CM7 final uses two ext4 file systems, one of them being the partition used for the "internal storage."

I'm able to manually mount the sdcard as ext4, however CM7 doesn't recognize the sdcard, and won't mount it for me.
Does anyone know what we need to change to get CM7 to recognize an ext4 sdcard?
Thanks!
Little bit of a thread hijack going on, but that's okay.
Is your vold.fstab mounting the correct partition?
Okay, so I got all the different partitions of my SD card to mount this morning, even an Ext3 file system. I might do my own How-To later for the CM7 users on here and so that it appears using more tags in someone's Google search.

Sorry for resurrecting an old thread but I need to know: Did you ever document somewhere how you got this working under Windows 7 64-bit?
I'm in the same boat as you, needing to be able to mount and read an ext2 partition on my Windows 7 64-bit. I've got the necessary drivers that'll let me read ext2 and above but having access to that 2nd partition while the card is in my Windows laptop is where I'm stumbling.
Any pointers would be much appreciated.
In fact, I actually did manage to find the drivers for x64 Win7. Check out post #7 of this thread right here to see the details.
I've been able to load, boot & run the 4.2 release on my Dell Mini 9 from a USB key just fine. It even recognizes my Intel 4965AGN wireless card. All is good ONLY FROM THE USB. Although I have the option to install to HDD, it just won't do it. Every time I try to boot from the HDD it says "Operating System not found". The files appear to be there but in a folder I've tried formatting FAT32, NTFS, EXT3 and all seem to have the same results. Am I missing something or is there a problem with the installer? Anybody else been here yet?
As I stated, everything runs fine from a USB stick, even my wireless and Play Store! Just wish I could figure out how to get everything to the HDD and boot from there. It goes through all the motions like it is installing, leaves what look like the correct files there, just won't work. Go to Reboot and no OS.
Any help would be appreciated.

I've read that you could create an empty data folder in the root directory and then send the grub entry to it with
Data=
In the kernel string...
I'm testing here if this will work (maybe even in an ext4 partition).

Awesome, thanks!
By the way, before I got the USB-3 flash drive, I ran Remix OS from a USB-2 flash drive. It worked just fine. Not as fast as USB-3, but still fine for testing purposes. You might be able to test your method using a USB-2 flash drive.
I'm a bit of a noob, so I think I'll wait until you have tried it to see what you say. By the way, some other guy has come up with another method to accomplish the same thing. But I didn't quite understand his instructions either.

As the title said, my laptop was very old and running Windows very slow. So I want to use RemixOS to replace my Windows.
Is thaa possible?

I mean:
1. Install on USB
2. Format the partition on HDD
3. Clone the USB to HDD
right?
I success to replace my Windows with RemixOS.
But how can I use the full partition of my HDD?
Installation of Remix OS on hard disk using all storage
Have a look at "How to install Remix OS to hard disk".
easy,it is like install it on VMware.
just create a boot able USB
boot from it.
then on boot press tab and enter quiet INSTALL=1 DEBUG=
if I remember correctly.
this will start the stand alone hdd formating tool and installation wizard.
this is very easy and you find tons of videos about it on YouTube.
