Hi all,
I have been able to boot with usb drive on an Asus G73JH and has been running OK. Issue with browser, it brings a dialog and said something when wrong do you want to close. I say no and continue...it comes back within a minute with the same issue. This is the legacy version.
Love this guys....I have been looking to run Android on my PC. This is encouraging and great job on Remix!
i can't boot with usb driver on my sony vaio fit although i downloaded remixos - uefi version. please help me!
I'm trying to boot Remix OS Legacy version on a Dell Inspiron 1520 laptop, from a San Disk 16GB USB 3.0 drive. I've downloaded and burned the Remix OS to the USB twice but all I get is a Boot Loop.
The PC starts booting and I get the option to boot in Resident Mode or Guest Mode. Doesn't matter which I choose, it gets to the point in the screen shot below and the PC simply reboots over and over.
I've checked the BIOS and can't find anywhere to disable secure boot or anything like that. Any help or ideas Thanks!

When your pc starts, keep pressing F2 key. You will enter the BIOS menu. Go to the boot tab, select "Legacy Boot" mode and disable "Secure Boot". Change the boot structure from HDD to FDD. Press F10 to save and reboot. Done.

Ah, but you didn't say search harder. You just reiterated what I'd already been doing.
I guess that old PC isn't gonna run Remix.

My nine year old ****ty laptop has legacy boot, dude, how is it possible you dont have it. If not, get an update from the motherboard's official website.
For example, some acer laptops did not have legacy boot mode, so, they released an update to it on their official website. Maybe, your manufacture did it too.

Do you really think that all the brands release updates for their bios?
Most of them don't! The one for my motherboard ends at 24/11/2010....

Well, thats potato. No remix for you.
Well, how about dual booting? YOu can always try my grub2 method. I have posted it in the forum.

Well don't look anymore for secure boot because Inspirons don't have/support it.(Under system information mine says unsupported) I don't have any ideas/recommendations for you other than to redownload and reburn to usb because on my Inspiron all I had to do was change the boot priority order in the boot menu and whenever the usb is plugged in I boot to it.
I think Remix is still in alpha stage. From other side, there is to many diferent hardware, and it is hard to support all of them. My experience: I have Toshiba Satellite L775D AMD quad core wit AMD Radeon 6520G hd and 6GB RAM. I am very familiar with instalation of OSs on hdd, I have 4 Linux distros, 1 Android x86 and 1 Windows 10 on same hard drive (multi boot, runing GRUB from Arch Linux), but I can't boot Remix. Also, I can not boot Android x86 Lollipop and Android x86 Marsmellow. I can boot Android x86 KitKat and have one installed on hdd. From other side, on my wife Acer Aspire, I can boot all of these stuffs.
Sory dude, but I think you simple have no luck with your hardware and Remix. Maybe things will be better in future for you (and for me).

Same with me still, with beta
Workaround for dell inspiron is to use PlopKexec boot manager. Don't know if it will work for HDD but I got USB 32bit version working on my Dell inspiron 1545 using it.
32bit works for me!
Got an old Dell GX620. 64bit gave endless loop symptoms. 32bit works like a charm! :good:
My Toshiba Sattelite C50d-a-13w can boot remix and android x86(_64) from 5.1 to 7.1 ...................
I realize that this is way overdue, however Dell laptops back then did not support secure boot, and while they did support both UEFI, you could not enable or disable either, you just had to manually specify each time you boot from USB what you wish to boot (and Dells use F12 for manual boot).
As to whether RemixOS boots or not, that is down to the specific hardware and OS version.
I have an Intel DH55HC motherboard, and Remix OS booted on it without issues, until the last versions, where it would keep failing to boot.
SOLVED The problem was that dev_boot_legacy and dev_boot_usb had been disabled. Without getting into ChromeOS there seemed to be no way to set them until I found a guide titled "Workaround for battery discharge in dev-mode" (I cannot post links yet). It worked like a charm and I've just booted into Linux Mint off USB.
I've been running Linux on my Acer C720 since day one and I love it, but a recent series of events has left me locked out of it. I'd love to get it running again but I cannot figure out a way back in. I'll break down a short history and recent events.
Acquired C720 and unlocked developer mode.
Installed several flavors of Debian, completely removing ChromeOS from the SSD, eventually settling with Arch Linux.
After enjoying Arch for a year decide to try out Qubes.
Something fails during Qubes installation.
Boot into a Debian live environment from USB. Debian cannot see my SSD.
Try a few different distros from USB, but fdisk et al. cannot see my SSD.
Now I highly doubt that Qubes broke my SSD. It was probably already faulty but my Arch install was chugging along and not using the bad sectors. This is where I think I locked myself out, I don't remember the exact order of things but I re-enabled OS verification at the boot screen, and attempted to run the ChromeOS recovery from a USB. The ChromeOS recovery also failed. I put the SSD in my desktop and confirm that it was indeed dead.
So now I have a Chromebook with OS Verification enabled and no SSD to restore ChromeOS on. Bummer. But I figured I could try some things, so I booted into recovery mode with Esc-Refresh(f3)-Power and hit Ctrl+D at the Recovery Screen, success! I was able to disable OS Verification. But this has not solved my issue...
When I boot I can press Ctrl+D to be taken to a screen that tells me Chrome OS is missing or damaged and to insert a recovery USB. If I insert a USB loaded with Linux I am told "The device you inserted does not contain Chrome OS." I have no m.2 SSD to put into the chrome book to recover it and start the process from a virgin state.
What I'd like to do at this point is use the Chromebook running my OS from a USB stick, at least until I can afford a new SSD which will not be for some time. Is there any way for me to do this?
have you tried Chrubuntu?

I have, but I have no interest in keeping ChromeOS around. The problem is solved anyway.
Ok, so here's the run down. I can install/run off a USB Phoenix OS and the Android X86 versions off any of my computers at home. But Remix OS will hang forever on the "Remix OS" splash screen. Since Phoenix and Remix are variants of Android x86, what could be the differentiating factor?

Try the 32 bit version... Had this and it worked for me.

Yes, I tried this too. Unfortunately, no dice.
@K387 it's probably the GPU handling. Remix OS handles GPU drivers differently from the rest Android-x86 forks.
Try adding: "androidboot.swrast=1" or "EXTMOD=radeon" or "EXTMOD=nouveau" to grub kernel line. Do NOT mix these together.
You didn't mention the basic info needed in troubleshooting this kind of problems - device model, CPU model, method of installation, install to USB/HDD?
RemixOS main system are "seamlessly" different from other Android-x86, Remix has different drivers which some have incompatibility with some hardwares (and it was the one which preventing me from booting via my Laptop's HDD).
If you can stuck on bootloop at 64bit version, that means that you are ran RemixOS on right hardware but it have incompatibility with drivers and your hardware. After all, if you ran 64bit on 32bit Processor, you will just end up at "Minimal BASH-like command... " or it wont boot up anyway.

I have an old lenovo K900 phone with an x86 intel atom cpu. Seeing that it's x86, i'd like to try and get windows or linux up and running. Is there any way that i can get droidboot to boot from a standard windows or linux setup USB key? If not, is there any way i can flash a proper BIOS onto this so i can get either windows or linux running on it?
the phone is currently running android 4.2.1.
woah... i tought this phone has dissapear from the univers because lack of developer and source. instead of linux or windows you can install cm12.1 [android lollipop] to this phone go to 4pda lenovo k900 that is the latest and last custom things for this phone...
to do linux or windows u need modify much things including kernel... off cource u need do it alone because no developer for this phone?... but dont know if future decide give it one hahaha
