I have a Fujitsu P1120 touchscreen netbook. I have been trying to dual boot android with the windows xp that is on there but have had no success. I cannot seem to figure out the right way to put android on the hard drive. It keeps coming up with a grub error for invalid filesystem. I have downloaded liveandroid, android 86x. The main problem that I have is that my device doesn't support booting from usb, booting from network, or any usb external drive. So the only way I can get it to work is to manually install android but I don't know how to do that.
Can anyone help me with this please?
i have same problem , i want to install android on fujitsu p1120, but i see installation freezed, now i want to test froyo android

I so happy now.. i found one dvd-rw usb work very fast in the my fujitsu...
Is liteOn Slim USB (have 2 usb) dvd-rw and the bios work..
To put it bluntly you're trying to get your netbooks to do something it isn't intended to do. Those thing are built with the absolute bare minimum to do pretty much nothing more than browse the web, hence "netbook". It's not a full PC. Even the newer ones don't run a full version of Windows 7. Short of knowing how to re-write a BIOS image or finding a modified one and flashing it, which has the risk of perma-bricking your computer.
Волк,
Sorry my bad english..I have a good computer, phone and tablet. However I like to modify my old electronics giving new life to them .... Now for example I'll replace the HDD Fujitsu Lifebook P1120 IDE for SSD and I'll put a PCMCIA card with internal memory to speed up Windows. I installed windows 7 and it is working. So I had to make a modification in winsetup.dll to install.
At the moment I install Android but I am having difficulties.
Hi guys !
I wanted to know whether the new Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 can run Windows 8./LINUX !!
Theoretically it shouldn't be too hard as it has an Intel Atom x86 processor and it shares a lot of it's specs with the Acer Iconia w510 and other tablets running Windows 8
Can you please tell me some of the issues that we may have to deal with ?
Like we will have to do something with the bootloader to make Windows 8 bootable and things like that :/
And please if you want to say something like -Why do you want to run windows on an Android tablet-
XDA is about modding. A new OS will not hurt anyone AFAIK.
What are your ideas ? I think it can be done but what will we need to do ?
Now we will be concentrating on Linux. it Will be easier.
Please use this thread for discussing Linux on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1
Thanks for reading !

much like apple windows 8 is closed source. Thats pretty much the end of the thread. Without a way to compile, edit the operating system and know what changes your making its just not a undertaking many will accept.
@trevd Do you have anything to say about this ?
@wranglerray I'm just talking about installing windows to a device. AFAIK no compiling/editing will be needed. There are other tablets out there that do the same thing so why not this one ? The only major hurdle I see is making some kind of a custom bootloader that can boot the windows stuff instead of the android stuff. THAT part will probably need to be made from scratch or it may be ported from a similar device.
There are quite a few devices like this that run windows with similar specs so why not this one ?

well quite honestly your talking about porting windows to a device. Our device comes with android and you want to port windows to it instead. So on our device there are parititons chuncks of data of varying sizes allocated to hold a small part of the code that runs our phone. from ramdisk to the radio. The issue on its surface, we dont know how that partition table lines up with a different device.(which the partition table can and most likely is, completely different) and because winodws 8 is closed source we dont know how it boots, or how to edit the imstaller to ensure the os gets copied over the correct partitions. if porting were as easying as just flashing what ever you want and then changing some things to tweak it i'm sure you'd see hundreds of ports in a day or two. Unforntatley it really kinda sucks
The partitions are the biggest problem. We could in theory also boot from the SD card and as a result bypass all the android stuff and get it dual-booting but first we need to know how we can boot windows

Hi There
I've not got a device in my hands yet to be able to give a proper device focused opinion on this.
but since you ask, I will say It really all depends on the bootloader setup on the device and how accessible that is, it could well be a proprietary Samsung Design in which case I wouldn't want to "mess" with it unless you had a JTag handy for when s**t goes wrong, otherwise you'll be holding a very expensive brick.
Even without bootloader access theoretically you could create a 3rd stage bootloader ( possibly Grub2/uboot ) which sits in place of the kernel in the boot image ( or recovery image ) , this would give the Option to load android or chainload into the windows boot manager, this is how things are done on classic x86.
If you have to go with a 3rd Stage Loader then the first steps is to get your own code running instead of the Standard Kernel Initialization inside an android boot image, There's all sorts of fun to be had after that as basically you'd need to place things in memory where the Kernel or the Boot Manager is expecting to find them amongst many other things.
Standard Windows 7/8 Installations setup a "hidden ( not assigned a drive letter in windows) " 100MB NTFS partition which contains the bootmgr.exe ( TRIVIA : boot manager replaced NT LOADER ( NTLDR ) which was used by Windows XP ). The boot configuration datafile ( BCD ) contains the settings for loading the actual operating system.
I wouldn't be too concerned about the closed source nature of Windows as there's still plenty of folks doing some absolutely bonkers **** with Windows/Windows Booting. Check out http://reboot.pro if you want to see some of that. My favourite is the 10MB WindowsXP that boots cmd.exe and nothing else LOL WAT!?! . I'm not saying you'll find the answers there but I'd consider it the "state of the art" when booting windows in unusual ways.
Without getting too far ahead, if you did get it booting then it appears the Asus Memo Pad FHD 10 which is a windows 8 device has the same SOC so I would expect there to be driver support already present ( or available ).
Additionally I've not even considered UEFI and how that would affect the whole scenario as I've not delved into the UEFI chaos yet.
Personally I've not used Windows in anger for a couple of years and I've only booted Windows 8 in VM's just to have a look, so my "WindowsFu" is getting a little rusty.
In Summary : Technically Possible ( anything is possible ) - All depends on the bootloader and how much you want it! and to paraphrase @wranglerray "If it was easy, everyone would be doing it"
Trevd
@trevd @wranglerray Thanks so much for the input
This shouldn't really be too hard to do for an experienced dev IMO but I don't have mcuh experience with all this stuff
The stuff that has been done to the HD2 was a lot harder I think but Cotulla still managed to make a custom bootloader and boot WP7 things like that
Thanks again for the comments

Please read the above link
basically we can now understand what the partitions are and what they do
Is it really that hard to make some kind of a zip file that can be flashed in recovery to boot the windows 8 bootloader ?
Why can't we just install an image of windows 8 to the SD card and boot off it ?
What do I need to know in order to understand and try to make this work ? Since no one is developing for the tab 3 10.1 I thought I'd give it a try

As a newbee I will guess:
Windows can take a bigger effort.
Runing Linux natively, easier. Android drivers should be already Linux Compatible. Tweeking them under Linux I do not know. My best guess is looking how to make grub to run first for dual booting. Or even better, Create a partition on external SD forl Linux, To be safe on TWRP recovery add a bottom to boot Linux or even esier re-use one temporary to test posibility.
Good Luck.

Even if Windows RT aka an ARM optimized ISO, was downloadable, it COULD NOT be used on Tab 3 10.1
Because this Tab doesn't have an ARM CPU, it have a x86 (32Bits) CPU. So better get a x86 ISO. I also got the same idea (like many other Tab 3 10.1 users). But the dream is NOT going anywhere. Also, Android apps are honestly BAD OPTIMIZED for this CPU ! That's why the Tab lags.
I sold mine and have bought a Tab 7.7 w/ SuperAmoled HD Screen but I broke its screen and can't now find any replacement in my region
Our best chance would be:
Ability of instally Windows 8 into a single .IMG file like Windows XP has been installed !
However, QEMU and KVM refuses to install Windows 8 into a VM idk why !
The RAM of the Tab is also a bit low to run Windows 8 inside Android.
If only a Great Dev could port or create "The Multi-boot bootloader" for Tab 3 10.1 as done on Nexus 7, then I won't waste my money buying a Windows 8 Tablet again since I would manage to install Windows 8 natively, whatever happened !

I am new to the forum but not windows and android though not advanced but do you think that getting those files in the 100mb partition and making an ext2 image of them with slight modifications to fit in the architecture and flash the image as a recovery image?
or perhaps we could use rom manager and by creating a virtual rom composing of windows and boot them via the rom manager tool.
or perhaps we could use grub or a similar tool to boot into an image file or sdcard with windows installed on it and flash the grub files onto the recovery partition but some one with advanced info please confirm all these possibilities!

Yes, but since both Windows and any x86 Linux are designed for the same architecture, shouldn't we be able to boot Windows?

finding out where the flag checking starts and finishes would probably make the third stage boot
more realizeable. i directly flashed both grub and then plop to recovery block and got nowhere,
so it's mmcblk0boot0 or mmcblk0boot1, i haven't found anything in param===>/dev/block/mmcblk0p16 yet
and if p5210 has the little kernel burnt onto the chip setup, from my understanding of what i've
read it's a really basic/small/simple setup so even if the flag was there and unchangeable we should
still be able to get past it somewhere else, right?

Hello,
I have found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2070139
If you read further, you can find almost complete solution for archlinux natively on Note 10.1. WIth multiple fixes/scripts. Any reason why it cannot be done on tab3 10.1? I'm asking because I might try to compile proper kernel and prepare some distribution as tablet provides power that ends up completely wasted by android.
Hello,
Here is the steps to upgrade the 64GB version (Sorry I d'ont have the 32GB to test) from 4.4.2 stock firmware to 4.4.4 stock firmware . (you will lost your windows 8.1 boot, but don't worry here are the steps to reinstall it)
I am not responsible for any damage of your device.
Before starting you need to buy :
a keyboard
a keyboard
an usb key 250Mbytes (minimum)
an usb key 6Gbytes(minimum)
an OTG micro usb HUB like this one Inateck ultra-mini 4-port USB Hub micro usb OTG hub , at least you need 3 port USB : one for the keyboard , one for a USB key (FAT32) , one for the USB key (NTFS).
After the upgrade your Android will be in chinese , but it's easy to change the language, go to the parameters screen-->click on the square icon with a "A" inside-->click on the first line-->choose your language.
You can find the adb driver and/or root the tablet on my other post root & drivers
0)If your tablet is booting on windows , switch to android
1)Download the update kit : http://ul.to/la0uhu2r
2)unzip it
3)connect your tablet to your computer , and put your tablet in fastboot mode ( power on+volume up)
4)launch the flash.bat , wait ...and the tablet will restart
5) et voilà!!!!
And now the step to install Windows 8.1 :
0)Boot your tablet on android , and switch the tablet to Windows, the tablet restart and fail to boot ( it's ok) , you need to do this to install Windows on the good partition
1)Download the windows boot program : FAT32.zip
2)Unzip on a formated FAT32 USB key (250Mbytes minimum)
3)Download the windows 8.1 official chuwi image (13 parts) :
http://ul.to/fefdtn4r

http://ul.to/v6j1kufc
http://ul.to/2hd605ra
http://ul.to/awcux5s0
http://ul.to/8yecpg4m
4)Unzip it on a formated NTFS USB key (6Gbytes minimum) , you will have a folder "images" on your key
5)Start your tablet with Power on+Volume up , the tablet will boot on a screen with big icons
6)Plug the USB HUB , plug on the Hub the keyboard and the FAT32 USB key (with the boot program)
7)with the keyboard , select the icon "Boot from file"
8)Select the "bootmgr.efi" , before pressing enter ,Plug the NTFS USB KEY , then press enter
10)Wait and watch the installation.
11)Done!!
Here is the driver for the hardware for Windows 8.1 http://ul.to/j6ycogwi, unzip on your Tablet ,use only if have undected hardware

Thank you very much. This is a great help for a backup driver. On the other hand I did found another way to backup my drivers. the software name is "double driver". It works well, backing up and restoring pc drivers. I have just a clean install of Windows 10 and restoring the drivers with this software. Thanks again.
Two questions
Hi and thanks. I have two very important questions:
1-does this tablet have bios setup? In other words, can I setup a legacy boot to install windows 10 from USB?
2- when formatting to install new windows, will Android be removed too? If no, is there any way to completely format the disk and install only a new windows?

1. Hello, to enter in bios setup, you need a USB keyboard and a 2 or 3 ports USB hub with micro USB to be connected at the tablet. You turn on the tablet and while the display turns on with its chuwi logo, you must in time press the exit key on the keyboard. With that, it will enter on its bios mode.
2. In my case, my chuwi v10hd version, I only have the windows 8.1 installed and updated it to Windows 10. After that I decided to have a clean install to Windows 10. I made a bootable USB by using Rufus, converting iso image of Windows 10 to uefi bootable usb image. That's my case. In your question, if you're going to update windows to version 10, I think windows will overwrite the boot loader and booting to Android will not be possible. I think the android partition will remain intact if you will not format it. If you want to install only windows 10, it will be much easier. You can delete all partitions that is, windows and android and install Windows 10. Windows will take care the rest of the formatting and installation. This is done by custom install on Windows 10 installation. A suggestion, if you want a clean install, you have to backup your drivers and restore them after clean install. I used double driver for backup and restore. Another is have a copy of your serial number of Windows 10. Hope this can be a help.
desperately in search of a Bios
Hi,
may somebody has a Bios and the right tool for me to flash my Chuwi V10HD 3G.
I locked my self out of the bios configuration with disabling the USB keyboard support in the bios,
may somebody has another way to reset the bios without opening the Tablet.
I tried a lot of things already, but nothing helps.
But the Windows is still working, but indeed no USB support in Windows after I accidentally disabled it in Bios.
Thanks a lot for any help.

So recently I got this cheap android 5.1.1 tablet with the intel cpu.
So I am into this kind of stuff with rooting devices trying different methods/programs.(NOT PROFESSIONAL)
Then I wondered can I somehow make this dualboot win10 and android at the same time...
because I did tried like 10 root aplications and it didnt work eventually so I was pissed of really bad.
After researching for 2 hours on google and ending up with crapware and screen sharers.
Hope someone here help me..

Dual boot isn`t as simple as it looks , it needs to be developed for your device but as I have tried to search , your device isn`t listed here on xda
You can ask here where maybe other users with a similar device can provide more feedback !
Good luck !

Windows is probably the main/primary OS. If getting Android to boot is somewhat linked to the existence of Windows, then you might not be able to remove it. That's probably why no one did that yet.
Edit: I found this http://forum.chuwi.com/thread-1848-1-1.html
Maybe you can give it a try. Remember that you do it at your own risks.

What you're trying to do is getting more space under Android.
That won't go without repartitioning. It's another task for the expert. Although you should be able to access (read) windows partition in Android if you use an app that can mount NTFS drivers in Android system.
Bigger issue. I just tried to reset from window to the if Android disappears. The tablet is stuck at some boot situation. Anyway to solve this plz?

Hi @METAL66 are you still stuck?
I don't have a guaranteed solution (I have original not "Pro") for you but the following helped me get Android working again when it got stuck at the Intel Inside logo.
This tablet is a x86-64 PC, and boots into a UEFI BIOS first.
1. If you don't have the Chuwi keyboard for this tablet, you can use an OTG (on the go) cable to connect a regular PC keyboard to it. I used a USB hub to allow me to connect a USB drive at the same time:
Code:
[Tablet] -- (OTG) -- [USB hub] -- [keyboard]
[USB storage]--------------------/
With the keyboard attached, you can press Del or Esc (a few times) during bootup to enter the BIOS config.
In there you can change things like whether to show a "quiet" boot or not. I turned it off so I see the AMI BIOS info when it first boots.
2. The official Chuwi Web site has self-contained recovery image installers (WinPE based).
This is the tutorial I used to recover Android while preserving Windows 10.

Among the available recovery images is one that installs Android and causes Windows to be "lost"
http -- forum.chuwi.com / thread-1210-1-1.html
I'm not sure if the WinPE instance they distribute has full control over the partitions (presumably it at least has software on it to allow access to the Android partitions to repair the boot files write the image), but if so, maybe you can use it to delete the Windows Partitions and reclaim the space for use by Android.
