Use steps 4 to 6 after you boot from USB with Remix OS, you will be able to reformat and install the OS again

RE: Stuck at Remix OS boot screen
After much playing around and trial and error, I've managed to fix the flashing logo problem;
A lot of the scripts for the grub entry are needlessly complex, so I'll try and outline it as simply as I can. Make sure you use the grub customizer gui app (http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2016/04/install-grub-customizer-ubuntu-16-04-lts/) because it handles the different variations on the grub system from ubuntu-based distributions.
Since you will probably be at the stage of actually getting to the Remix OS flashing logo, I'll outline the details for the entry script in grub customizer that works and is fairly easy to follow;
The insmod entries may not all be needed, but including them all doesn't do any harm;
insmod gzio
insmod part_gpt
insmod ext2
The set root command tells grub where to find your RemixOs partition or folder, you can find your partition numbers by typing sudo fdisk -l in a terminal, it will list lots of /dev/sda[x] entries. eg (/dev/sda0, /dev/sda1 and so on) /dev/sda0 is your first partition on your first hard disk, which will be hd0 for grub. If you have more than one physical hard disk you will also have /dev/sdb entries here too, those will be hd1 for grub.
If you have RemixOS installed in your first hard disk hd0, and in the 3rd partition /dev/sda3 the line in the grub entry will be;
set root=(hd0,3)
The next few lines are telling grub which files to load up for RemixOS and are fairly simple by comparison;
linux /kernel /root=/dev/ram0
You will recall that 'kernel' is one of the files you extracted from the RemixOS ISO, this command basically tells the OS to load the kernel for Remix into ram. The next line is a bit more complicated, but it's the meat of the whole RemixOS system, after this command you can tell RemixOS which options you want to enable for your system. There are too many options to list here, so we'll keep it simple.
androidboot.hardware=RemixOS_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive SRC=/system.img
This is also a fairly simple line, if you have an older x86 only machine, make sure you delete the '_64' at the end of the androidboot.hardware line. The next section androidboot.selinux=permissive is required. Lastly the SRC= line is the part I missed out when I was loading it for the first time. You have to make sure you point this SRC= to the system.img that you originally extracted from the ISO. The rest of the commands after this are the specific options you can configure, I'll leave that to your research
Finally, the last line initrd /initrd.img is required and also not terribly complicated.
The entry in grub customizer therefore should look a lot like this:
insmod gzio
insmod part_gpt
insmod part_msdos
insmod ext
set root='(hd0,3)'
linux /kernel root=/dev/ram0
androidboot.hardware=RemisOS_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive SRC=/system.img
initrd /initrd.img
Bearing in mind to adjust where necessary for your own system, hope this helps!!!!
PSon't forget to SAVE entry in grub customizer!!!

if your still having issues this worked for me www youtube com/ watch?v=3Vl25bJeGn8 just take out the spaces and insert periods
1. Create a second ext4 partition for Remix OS using Gparted
You should delete the linux-swap and the extended partition first. After reducing the size of your Ubuntu partition sda1 you can create your Remix OS partition sda2.
Finally you'll create a new extended partition containing the linux-swap.
http://postimage.org/index.php?lang=german
2. Install Remix OS into the new partition
Use the steps described in "Installing Remix OS to Hard Drive or Virtual Machine without additional tools", but there are a few differences:
- Skip step 3, because you have a formatted ext4 partition already (in my example: sda2)
- Step 4: Select sda2 for your installation (formatting of sda2 not needed)
- Step 5: Do not install a boot loader GRUB; do not install EFI GRUB2 (you'll customize the Ubuntu boot loader)
3. After a reboot Ubuntu will start. Please install grub-customizer
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install grub-customizer
4. Start grub-customizer and add a new entry (Ctrl + N) named e.g. "Remix OS", Type "other"
Boot sequence:
insmod gzio
insmod part_msdos
insmod ext2
set root='(hd0,2)'
linux /android-2016-07-12/kernel quiet root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive SRC=/android-2016-07-12
initrd /android-2016-07-12/initrd.img
(hd0,2) has to be changed if you use a partition other than sda2 on hd0 for Remix OS.
Example: If you are using sdb2 on hd1 the "set root" command is
set root='(hd1,12)'.
You can obtain the Android path (e.g. /android-2016-08-11/) by mounting the Remix OS partition with the Linus file manager.
Example of boot menu entry for Remix OS
http://postimage.org/index.php?lang=german
If you are working with the Remix OX 32bit version you have to use ". . . androidboot.hardware=remix_x86 . . ." in the last line (beginning with linux).
Example: With version 3.0.103 (2016080805) 32bit the line has to be:
linux /android-2016-08-08/kernel quiet root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86 androidboot.selinux=permissive SRC=/android-2016-08-08
initrd /android-2016-08-08/initrd.img
5. Make the Remix OS entry the second boot menu entry
http://postimage.org/index.php?lang=german
6. Modify the General Settings
- Default: first entry
- Show menu
- Start default after 5 seconds
http://postimage.org/index.php?lang=german
7. Save the new grub configuration
8. Check the new swap UUID and correct it in /etc/fstab
sudo blkid | grep swap
9. Reboot and select the second entry "Remix OS"
Thanks for the guide it's really useful for me since I'm already using ubuntu and had a separate partition ready for another OS.

I have changed only "insmod part_msdos" to "insmod part_gpt" since I'm using GPT/UEFI (I'm running it on an old mac mini, only boots UEFI)
Any idea what might be wrong? I already triple-checked the grub entry and stilll can't figure out what's going on. Tried also editing hd0,# on boot to no avail either.
EDIT: Would it be easier to have it as single OS? I already backed up and cleaned the HDD.

Are you sure it's (hd0,3)?? You may have to recheck that. Enter the command mode by pressing 'c' at Grub menu and execute 'ls' command to list partitions. I guess it must be (hd0,gpt3) or something like that. You can double check which is RemixOs partition by using 'cd' into each partition executing 'ls' to list files.
Thanks Thisu, but no dice, I even tried installing RemixOS as the main OS without any luck. I have used crappy linux installers (like way back knoppix) but damn Remix takes 1st prize. Right now I'm trying to reinstall GRUB2efi from an ubuntu live USB. No matter what kind of installation I do for Remix I get the typical "blank" GRUB screen (the one that states "....minimal bash command...." and a GRUB> prompt)
I don't know what's the matter with this installer, it's never consistent. sometimes it asks for a data file creation, sometimes doesn't, sometimes just reboots after the install, sometimes prompts what to do... Resident mode tends to work but from this particular drive and computer, is barely useable due to poor speeds. And trying to repurpose an old mac with this is far worse, the PoS won't even try booting a normal MBR scheme. it HAS to be EFI

I am no GRUB specialist, and I do not use EFI. I found a working GRUB configuration for Remix OS by copying and modifying the primary GRUB configuration for Linux Mint 17.3. The tool I used is the "grub-customizer". I installed Remix OS in partition sda2, and "set root='(hd0,2)' " worked for me.
I created and formatted sda2 using GParted; so during the Remix OS installation sda2 did not have to be formatted. Because I wanted to use the Ubuntu GRUB installation, the Remix OS installer has been told not to install GRUB und EFI GRUB2.
In case if someone still looking for help, use the example below. I was successfully able to boot with configuration below.
All you have to do is to mention right gpt partition where you have installed remix os mine was gpt6.
Then by running the "blkid" command in ubuntu terminal find the UUID of the partition
Replace my UUID which is in this example with yours.
Instead of root=/dev/ram0 use root=UUID of the partition.
Hope it will help some

Installing Ubuntu first is at least easier, because Ubuntu will not detect Remix OS as "installed system" and will not offer installing Ubuntu as second system, providing dual boot.
ok, i have finally install everything,followed what have been put here.
but i get an error once i choose remix os on GRUB
error '/android-2016-07-12/kernel' not found
error 'you need to loadthe kernel first'
@remixtester
Firstly, thanks for the guide. I've got it mostly figured out but I have a couple of questions for you.
The partition I have installed Remix to is sdb12, so how would I edit the grub? Is it:
Code:
set root='(hd0,12)'
or
Code:
set root='(hd1,12)'
or something completely different?
Answer:
sdb = hd1 so the code is:
Code:
set root='(hd1,12)'
Also, the "/android-2016-07-12 has to be changed if you will use a Remix OS version other than 2.0.403 (2016-07-12)" section might need a little more clarification. I understand that I need to change this because I'm using Version 3.0.104, but there's no indication in this guide on how to find the correct information for builds that differ from the one you mention using. So how do I find out what to change that line to (as per the build I downloaded)?
Answer:
Mount the partition you installed Remix to in the Linux file manager and view the folder there.
Even though I've answered my questions I'm leaving this here for anyone else having the same questions in future. It might be a good idea to add this info to your guide.

Actually i did a mistake. Infact its a mistake in your code for boot sequence in your guide
In eg of 32 bit , you have written initrd=/andoid..... And correct is initrd /android......
Anyways hardly matters, your guide was awesome. Thank you !!!

I followed every step on the guide, but when I try to boot Remix Os, it just says "disk /dev/ram0 doesn't exist", I don't know what to do, I've tried changing /dev/ram0 for other disks and dir,, but just says the same "disk -the disk I decide to put- doesn't exist
also, sorry for my bad english, I mostly speak spanish
Ok everything went ok boots up and runs fine. my question be if you were going to root this you would want it to be after you make the bootable usb which will then change it to system.img and make the change on the grub customizer then install it to the partition with "Tab" INSTALL=1.
error when trying to start Remix OS
After the procedure, when I tried to start the operational system an error appeared "error archive '/android-2016-07-12/kernel' not found. alloc magic is broken at 0xb798ee00: b76cfc20." . How can I find the correct name of the kernel I had installed to make some changes in the grub costumization.
Thanks.
Label RemixOS partition as RemixOS using gparted and use the script in below link either through custom grub entry or grub-customizer.

Basically I've tried installing every build of RemixOs 3.0.X (2.0 worked). but with 3.0 I get no errors, it also does not actually install grub, so it is unbootable.
Now I can see the values in the EFI partition and everything on disk is correct, secure boot is disabled, but I do not get the grub boot loader to execute so I have no way to access RemixOS. Now I've tried installs in without AV and FW running, and every build, but simply put I can not get it to actually install Grub is impossible. I do not see why it is not running grub, as I stated everything looks correct, but for some reason the last step of triggering it to run on boot is not being executed, and I've yet to discover any way to manually force the process (or even a log of what went wrong).
How do I force RemixOS install to not only configure grub, but install it, if I had Linux installed I'd use setup-grub, but with only windows I'm at a loss. Also any idea why 2.0 worked and installed the bootloader, but 3.0 does not as far as I can see the boot loader is the same.
Finally I've gone as far as forcing the boot order to run grub, however then I'm stuck as the grub config from remixOS does not work from GRUB, when I copy it to the custom config, so obviously something else is required to boot RemixOS using grub2win, other than the EFI partition grub.cfg configuration, as that begins loading the OS, but does not succeed.
If I remove Quite and set " logo.showlogo=0", then I've been able to get remixos to start booting, however once the remixos's load screen appears it hangs, never completes. It also warns about ntfs module already being loaded, but that is just annoying nothing else. Still some progress, now if only I could see what was happening when it shows remixos instead of staring at a logo, which I might mention I disabled.
Thanks,
ERIC
Finally got it booting, but while it run, I can not get a keyboard so it is useless. Best I can do is Swiftkey Neural which shows 3 words, but no keyboard. It is as if it think I have a physical one connected even when I do not.

First I installed Remix OS with Windows 10 (Dualboot), I restarted my laptop, booted Windows 10 and at the OS Selection screen I chose Remix OS, it restarted, booted into Remix OS! Then I added Remix OS to my dualbooted Ubuntu Grub configuration with Grub-Customiser! Voila, I can boot from Grub from Ubuntu!
It should be similar for Grub2Win, but I wouldn't recommend it!

If RemixOS is installed, desintall it.
Create a new NTFS partition with sufficient space (H in my case)
Install Remix OS in the new partition (H), don't reboot!
Open Grub2win , manage a new entry. Choose Remix, and modify the "Linux Boot Parms" like this:
verbose androidboot.hardware=remix_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive quiet SERIAL=random REMOUNT_RW=1 DATA= SRC=RemixOS CREATE_DATA_IMG=1 androidboot.swrast=1
(quiet SERIAL=random is for open Google Play, REMOUNT_RW=1 is for having a RW system, if you don't want, don't put this option, androidboot.swrast=1 is for going further than the Remix logo)
Next, in the directory where Grub2win is (ie C:\), install AS ADMINISTRATOR a symlink (right click on Start, command prompt as administrator, cd C:\ and type mklink RemixOS H:\RemixOS), it's H in my case, change for your choice.
Reboot, and launch Remix in the Grub2win screen, and be happy

The latest Remix OS for PC OTA update (3.0.204) is ready. Thanks for your patience and for the feedback you've been sending us.
First , I'd like to give an update on the sleep issues that are still affect some of you (and us). We've been able to pinpoint the issue (through your feedback) to PCs running Skylake (6th generation) Intel chips. If you'd like to pitch in and look into the issue, please go to the Android-x86 Open Source Project OSDN repository: https://en.osdn.jp/projects/android-x86/
Also, we close to resolving the HDMI sound output issue. It's actually just going through internal testing right now, so look out for that in the next update.
And now, here are the full release notes for today's OTA update:

how do i upgrade from 3.0.203?
Upgraded. Looks great!
How about when I boot up, I have to manually connect to Wi-Fi. It doesn't automatically connect?
how can we boot into Remix OS 3.0 update 204 using Grub2win ? Can anybody help me giving a grub.cfg for booting into UEFI 64bit System. Having Issue during installation on UEFI 64bit stuck on "Remix OS" Boot logo
For this version, 3.0 204
For this version, the start menu does not work on my pc. and wifi did not connect automatically after reboot
nothing regarding video playback?? Or even the non functional Game toolkit after 2.0.203?
Nor anything regarding the volume up/down issue on XPS18.... I have submitted the correct way for this issue. If I press it once up, it goes max volume and won't turn down until I go back to home screen and close all running apps. Same with volume-down. I press it once and it silences the sound until I go back to home screen and kill running apps. This error only happens when I try to adjust volume while in an app and not on home screen. This means I have to set pre-determined volume THEN open an app....
DO u have any update on Keymapping tool?
start menu not showing up... I have to open apps through play store!
btw. i hate those ads in start menu. Windows 10's advertising featured apps through store live tile is more elegant way of advertising than this ..
Post 3.0.203 update, RemixOS fails to boot, getting stuck at the command window with a '-' (hyphen)sign. Tried deleting user data and installed the latest 3.0.204 on a clean NTFS formatted HDD partition, still the same thing,not booting at all. Mine is Fujitsu Laptop with Core i3(2nd gen),4GB RAM, and with switchable nVidia GT620M graphics.
New update, still the same bugs. Not wasting my time anymore.

Upgraded to 204 on my ext4 HDD partition by installing over (on top of) the 203, applying INSTALL=1 to the boot menu command line of the USB-stick (http://goo.gl/j7fba7).
Successfully I think. Could anybody explain what might be wrong with this installation method, please!
- Improved Remix OS performance on low-end budget PCs
finally i get best thing i'm actually waiting for YAY
no sound
i am use sony duo 11. i installed remix os version 3.0.204 . no sound from speaker but headphone is ok. plz fix it. thank very much.
This version now refuses to boot with hardware 3D acceleration on my laptop with NVIDIA Optimus hybrid graphics (Intel HD 4000 and GeForce 740M). On previous versions (not sure about previous 3.0.2xx, but 3.0.1xx worked, as did the later versions of 2.0) I'd add "nouveau.modeset=0" to the boot parameters, but it doesn't seem to do anything on this version (nouveau kernel module still loaded). Android-x86 6.0-r1 has the same problem as well.
Bugs:
No sound
Wifi doesn't connect to saved networks on reboot
Ongoing power management issues (frozen and needs reboot if it sleeps)
Also, trying to do the OTA borked my system, and I had to hard format the USB and recreate the media and reinstall from scratch.
PC is Chromebook Pixel 2 LS in developer mode, Legacy Bios enabled.

Take a look what i did (BEWARE try them on a system in which there is no linux Grub installed) otherwise you will be at lose )
Step 1: Well i made a extra partition of 10gb by shrinking the c drive (Note UEFI 64 bit system) & didnt assigned any of the Drive letter and formatted with fat32 file system. let it be (hd0,gpt6).
Step 2: Installed a Tool called GRUB2win from a Developer Drummerdp (Awesome work he did). Installed a Grub2win EFI Module and in Boot entry i made a Remix Os Boot entry which is made default by this tool (GRUB2Win- here is plus point you can also this grub anytime by uninstalling).
Step 3: Took a Pendrive 16gb. Used RUFUS 2.11 tool to burn the Give REMIX OS 3.0 iso with "GPT partition table for UEFI" on the pen drive.
Step4: On completion, Restarted the laptop or computer in which you made the partition. Booted from the Pen Drive
Step5: To edit the custom command Press "E" and add "INSTALL=1" in the give command.
Step 5: NOTE : YOU SHUD REMEMBER WHICH FAT32 PARTITON YOU MADE other you could format your windows partition too . In my case it was the 6th one which was a only fat32 partition. select and format with EXt4 .
Step6: Skip both the Grubs to install.
Step7: After syncing to the disk you will get REboot and Run ANDROID X86 Select "RUN ANDROID X86" and HOLLA YOU will boot into the REMIX OS 3.0 204
The only problem i got is with the grub2win GRUB.cfg file becoz i dont knw what edit shud i make in grub entry to make it boot even in the after the restart
in the C drive where Grub2win in installed Grub2.cfg have this Commands by default :-
menuentry 'Remix' --class remix --class icon-remix {
[*] set bootfile=/RemixOS/kernel
[*] getbootpartition file $bootfile
[*] if [ $? = 0 ] ; then
[*] linux /RemixOS/kernel root=/dev/ram0 verbose androidboot.hardware=remix_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive DATA= SRC=RemixOS CREATE_DATA_IMG=1
[*] initrd /RemixOS/initrd.img
[*]
but i this doesnt work at boot becoz these locations arent correct according to the latest update any help to this could make it work every time

This grub cmd kernel line works for me [64bit UEFI Install], basically replace DATA= ****** with SRC=/RemixOS
Code:
linux /RemixOS/kernel quiet root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive SERIAL=random logo.showlogo=1 SRC=/RemixOS
(opt. add REMOUNT_RW=1 if you want to mount system Read Write)
and for DEBUG=2 boot:
Code:
linux /RemixOS/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive SERIAL=random logo.showlogo=1 SRC=/RemixOS DEBUG=2
EDIT: make sure you have a "data" folder, like in
yourPartition: /RemixOS/data
I love love love Remix OS. I have had an issue with the past couple that seems to slightly differ than others. I am running a Yoga 3 and a Surface Pro 1. I switched from the Yoga to the SP1 because the WiFi just drops. It sits and spins at Turning WiFi on. This just randomly happens while using. Not during reboots. I am not sure what is going on. I just plug in a USB to Ethernet and roll. Just curious if this is just me?
Is there a list somewhere (that I could access) of the Android kernel command line (boot) parameters that are supported by the RemixOS kernel???
I am trying to get the latest build (207) to boot on my Intel i5 tablet. I fould that with the lastest build, I was about to boot RemixOS (for PC) from a USB driver. However, when I tried to install it to my UEFI based Inel i5 tabet, the install failed.
I see to have this UEFI related problem with all Androidx-86 based OSs. I was about about to get Android-x86 6.0 to boot by copying the files from the ISO to a folder on my hard drive, installing the Grub2Win EFI boot loader files, and manually creating a "Grub.cfg" file.
I tried this same method with RemixOS (for PC), but the kernel command line parameters in the RemixOS build of the Android kernel seem to be different than Android-x86, and the parameters using in the USB Grub config file don't seem to translate directly to a hard drive install.
In lieu of that, perhaps someone could provide me with the text from the Grub config file on their hard drive install of RemixOS (for PC) ???
I was able to get it to boot by adding CREATE_DATA_IMG=1 to the boot parameters.
The kernel then creates a data.img and proceeds to boot. At least, it did for me.
Hope that helps.
Hi
Ive just managed to get RemixOS installed on my Dell Inspiron 11 it has Win10, Fedora24,Manjaro, Deepin and a couple of other distros I was checking out all coexisting, booting on UEFI and sharing a 300GB Data partition. Now I swapped out Elementary and a CLI Arch and put in Remix it all seems to work pretty good, I have tested WiFi, bluetooth, Camera, Google Play, USB, The bluetooth seems at least as solid as the best linux distros Ive tried and way better than Windows 10.
I first burnt the ISO (Remix_OS_for_PC_Android_M_64bit_B2016112101) onto a USB stick
Then booted from the stick and edited the boot script to add INSTALL=1 to the end of the Linux Command.
This fires up the Android_x86 installer. I installed it onto a partition I prepared for it (Ext4 29GB).
I told it to format the partition and said no to both the grub installs and chose a readwrite system.
It ran without error and I rebooted into Fedora24 that has grub2 and grub-customizer.
That is my goto grub, it has menu items for all my installed distros.
I tried the OS-Probe generated script which failed but was useful because it had the UUID of my partition.
Then its a bit of trial and error but eventually it booted.
That first boot seems to take forever, but after a times it seems to be booting much quicker.
Here is the script fragment that works the best so far (I have Replaced my Partition number and UUID with (hdX, GPTXX) and XX respectively:
set root='(hdX,GPTXX)'
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root XX
linuxefi /kernel initrd=/initrd.img root=UUID= XX androidboot.hardware=remix_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive quiet SRC= DATA= CREATE_DATA_IMG=1 REWRITE=1
initrdefi /initrd.img
I thought I had downloaded 207 but now im not so sure, Remix just said it had an update to build 207 but didnt recommend updating because it detected I had installed with an unapproved installer.
Thank you!!
