Would anyone be interested in a tutorial for this. I have just achieved Android 4.0 on an Acer Aspire 1. Will work on almost any netbook, notebook, or PC.
One By One I am uploading these giant images. Pardon the fact that you may be able to see me. Notice android believes it to be a phone.

...why, why would anyone want to boot a mobile OS on a PC? I could understand Chrome OS, which is Android's big brother, but Android itself?

That phone sits best on mobile devices IMO.

Actually ATM i will post pictures but, until it's a stable release I won't post a tut. It has some bugs. This is not a port, It is actual android, not a vritual machine and can be a standalone OS.

Kinda trying to fix an issue with windows 7 deciding not to boot due to startup recovery automatically opening XD

Good luck trying - Windows is pretty damn fussy when it comes to Multiboots. I had that issue even when I had two WINDOWS installations - it just assumes that startup went ape. Pretty sure it can be fixed, but I must admit, it is annoying as hell.

Done, but startup recovery seems to have formated my partition with android on it. XD seems to think its a virus? Its okay, I got pictures.

Well, Android is a port of linux, and I'd like to try it, anyway.
The UI and all the apps of Android are Java Virtual Machines. While Android itself is a Linux distro, it's unusable without the Java libraries etc. Think of Android as a Java-based OS instead of a linux one, for simplicity's sake.

Doesn't Android require a different file system then Windows? AKA, the Linux one? (I don't really remember the name, ext something...)

Maybe Windows just thought the partition went corrupt. What I suggest is looking for an alternate multi-booter and using that instead of the built-in one which you are (more then likely) using now.

It could just do like most other Linux distributions do.
