What exactly do you mean? Are you running Windows and Android on a tablet or Virtual Box?

how do i REPARTITION Internal Memory ???

Hi all. I saw some great chances to repartition the Memory on some Android Tablets that use Internal Removeable microSD cards for their OS.
However, can it be done on a normal Tablet?
I Mean...
I'm getting a 7 inch Marvell10 (Marvel 800mhz) Android 2.2
256MB Ram and 2GB Internal Storage.
I WANT to resize the memory partitions so the APP section & Cache gets most of anything the system doesn't need.
IS THIS POSSIBLE? you can't remove the OS memory card in this.
If anyone knows how can you point me to a tutorial or pm the instructions?
I'd also need to know how to see what my sizes already are (and what space the system needs to remain).
MANY THANKS ! x7

[Q] Android x86 questions

3 Things
1. Can someone add an android x86 section because whenever i have a question or something i have no clue where to go
2. How can you add more memory to an android x86 because i have a 250 GB hardd drive and no other operating system except kitkat and i only got 9 apps installed and I'm already out of space and they aren't even big apps, when I was installing it I gave it the most memory i could (2048 MB iif I recall correctly), is there any way of using my availiable hard drive space as like an sd card
3. Since kikat removed the ability to move apps to the sd card how can i do that

You can't access the Ext partitions by using windows. You may be can format them using a partition manager but its not possible to mount the storage, as windows will only READ the first partition of a mass storage device

Android 7.1 on a Le Potato SBC Resizing Partitions

Hello everyone.
I have a Single Board Computer called Le Potato made by Libre Computer Project.
Specs: S905x SOC
Cortex-A53 @ 1.512GHz
2GB DDR3 Ram
ARM Mali-450 @ 750MHz
SD card for O.S
They offer an Android 7.1 Image to flash on a SD Card. So basically like a Generic Android TV Box.
I have a 16GB and 32 GB SD card and when i flash the image using ETCHER in Windows 10 it always leaves 7 to 22 GB unallocated, it only gives me 1.9GB of app space, and no matter what i try i can't seem to resize the right partition to have more app space. Any thoughts would be helpful. I'm using Gparted in Ubuntu to attempt to resize the partitons.
Thank you
Did you ever figure it out? I'm in the same situation right now.
Has anyone come up with a solution?
I also saw the same thing; a 32gb SD card was used and the image file was flashed via Etcher on an Arch Linux distro. Once I booted the potato, 1.9gb available space. digging through the storage settings, I saw that the system storage (OS i guess) was using the entire SD card. I also saw a few issues where some core app kept crashing when I went into different parts of the settings menu (but it still worked) and at one point I saw a different settings menu all together. This is in the MBOX variant.
Seems to me that the image file allocates the entire storage space to the system partition (just like a phone) and whoever built this did not account for user storage, missed some files, didn't input code correctly, etc. currently I unpacked the image file and am digging through to see what's going on; it's got to be all within the coding.
Update:
looking into the fstab.amlogic file currently. this is where the image creates partitions. sense there can only be 4 primary partitions, i think this is where the issue lies. not allocating enough space in the /Data partition as internal storage...
