Gaming Dual Boot Windows 7 and Android 4.0

[Zerosuit connor]

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.

Sweet! I'd love to figure out how. I have a Dell Inspiron Mini 1018 Netbook.

...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.

Ehh...I'd just use a virtual machine seeing how Android doesn't need much to run.

Well, Android is a port of linux, and I'd like to try it, anyway.

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.

Android is based off of Linux it isn't necessarily a port. You can't just pick up a generic Linux application and expect it to work on Android, there are different libraries and different things at work.

But when it loads it is beautiful.

Sounds sexy. I'd love to see this in action. Except for that whole "I don't have a touchscreen on my computer" part.

I am using Ubuntu myself, do you know how to work with that?

 

[Zerosuit connor]

Yep. I will make a tut for multiple OS.

I'm excited to see it!

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.

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.
