Hello ... !!
I installed the Linux system on my Lg g4 phone without a routine and then with the new userland program. Then I loaded the required files for windows 10 arm and installed qemu and installed the xfce4 interface and gave the commands to run windows 10 ARM in the terminal through the qemu program. Freeze on the prompt to press any button to take off from the CD or DVD and does not complete and then I did the same steps on my laptop system work but show me the blue death screen immediately after the takeoff
Note: The system needs to GPT and I own the MBR on the laptop Is that why the system Take off by UEFI which requires a GPT Do anyone help me

So , Hello everyone,
It will not remove or harm Android, it will just run Linux on top of android
This tutorial will guide you through installing Linux on mmx a116 with android side by side..
What is this all about?/Why put this on my device?
This projects aim is to bring a range of linux distros to your android device through a method known as 'chroot', see it has running a linux distro within a virtual machine on your phone (Although its not! its using native ARM ports and the Android kernel) . You can access this virtual machine and run it on your phone without causing any damage to your device, or having to overwrite anything. Why might you want this? well my apps are designed to make the install and set up process as easy as possible while still giving you some flexibility. Once you have the distro up and running then you can pretty much run and install any linux software you like (so long as there is a arm port or it is not architecturally dependent).
Wait this uses VNC why shouldn't I just VNC to a computer?
VNC is used to access the GUI as at the moment I have not yet implemented a native way of viewing the GUI. But the Linux distro itself is running within the phone and can be controlled via the terminal app so if your a seasoned Linux user you may never even want to use the GUI
What is Chroot?/How does this work?
"A chroot on Unix operating systems is an operation that changes the apparent root directory for the current running process and its children" - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chroot
This method of running linux distros with android has been around for some time. I have worked on my scripts to make the process more user friendly and give you far more options from the word go.
The scripts start by mounting the linux image file within the android file system and then mounts the sdcard and if you have it internal memory within the linux file system.
Chroot is then used to change the root directory to that of the mounted linux and a bash shell is then opened to allow you to control linux this is kind of like 'booting' the OS.
The likes of VNC and SSH are then set up when linux is 'booted' to allow you to connect to the GUI if you require it.
Note: This requires a lot of free space on sd cards(any)..atleast 2 GB ..
INSTRUCTIONS:
1-Go to play store and download 'Complete Linux Installer' and install it ..
2-if you have a custom or other kernel , you have to check wether it supports loop or not.So better be on Stock Kernel.
3- Now there are 2 ways to install and run distros(eg-linux,backtrack).One is easier but requires an internet connection on the phone.other is a bit difficult but can be done from PC also .
method 1 ( internet on smartphone )
Go to complete Linux Installer and select install guides and select the distro you want it will download and guide you further.(in the unzipping step , i recommend using a PC for it as its too slow on the phone.)
Method 2 ( using a PC )
Download the version and size of your preferable ubuntu from here -
http://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxonandroid/files/Ubuntu/
After that, download androidVNC and terminal emulator from play store
now extract ubuntu.zip and place it in a folder called ubuntu on root of your SD card.Now you are ready to boot too ubuntu. select the launch menu from complete linux installer.
you will be redirected to terminal emulator . press n if you are asked to check boot.img from md5 as it gets stuck there. set screen size to 1280x720 after few seconds you will see a message [email protected] . this means you are succesful.
go to android vnc type in port option 5900 and password and username as ubuntu an color settings as 24 bit..
congratulations! you have booted to Ubuntu!:highfive:
Hmmmm.
That's not dual boot.:sly:
It runs Linux in VM.
Thanks!
-Dracula
And i don't see why anyone would want to do this, it's just killing your phone by overloading it with a Desktop OS in a VM!
Also perhaps providing credit to the person that did all the hard work might be a good idea .......
Oh and its not a VM guys, it uses chroot which means native ARM linux running with the Android kernel, within Android.
I tried to install android 7.1 86x firstly for BIOS(legacy) mode because i like to keep the second OS hidden then I can boot directly to Windows 8.1 on EFI, then I selected to install grub however my stock bootloader was still starting and nothing of grub and therefore I cannot boot into android. Then I decided to install for EFI because I was a whole day trying to work that out and couldn't find any answer on Internet, however seems like the stock bootloader starts instead of grub after I restart the pc.
Extra information:
My pc has an E1-2000 AMD processor, it is 64 bits (and yes, i downloaded the right iso file).
Windows boots from EFI, and I had Kali Linux previously installed with grub and worked fine.After I removed kali I also removed grub with "bootrec /fixmbr" and "/fixboot" on command prompt.
Windows is working fine.
Try downloading the easyUEFI tool (check google) and on windows set a partition for Grub + setting it as the default over MBR

What if I don't have windows there anymore? Is there a similar solution, inside a command line maybe?
I think I'm in a similar situation where I can install and run Androidx86 from my USB, but if I restart the laptop it won't find any boot option.

So it has been a hectic few days for me as I had alas managed to wipe my system reserved partition thinking that installing android x86 as multi-boot would actually boot windows for me. Wrong!!! My first poor encounter was the fact that when I had installed windows it had created the system reserved partition as ntfs... I had not realized this when attempting to install android x-86 as multi-boot. I will tell you the result, when booting it would appear to go to grub, however instead it just booted the first menu on the list without hesitation and gave no menu at all. To remedy this I had to use the windows 10 usb i had created for my initial install. I am still not sure how i managed to get it to boot the first time I think it may have just been dumb luck. When windows booted up i went to Disk Management (right click the windows menu and select from the drop down) where I then proceeded to delete the system reserved partition and reformat it fat32. At this point I was satisfied that android would point the out the windows boot, boy was I wrong. After installing Android x86 (_64 8.1 r3) I finally achieved the grub menu boot correctly. I also noted that when installing android x86 the only way it gave me option to add windows to grub was if i had installed without formatting first. (this can be done a few ways including just reinstalling much the same way you would dirty flash a rom on a phone) or you could use a tool to format the partition such as gparted or a linux live cd/usb. I suggest ext4. Oh wait my nightmare hadn't finished yet... Android x86 install had no problems at all (select partition to install(ext4)... do not format... install grub... yes to windows... yes read write... and then reboot) on reboot windows was in the grub menu and I selected it... oops there is no operating system!!! Well that is unsettling... ( I managed to get back into windows using the install media) and not so sure how. At this point i notice that my system reserved partition was now sda 3) So my next objective was to create a boot record for windows which could have been done easily from windows had I considered using bcdedit tool for windows. But since i knew that the partition was sda 3 I figured I could just point the grub menu to the correct drive... again wrong (there was still no boot mbr on that partition *sigh) Well I found that when i went into command line from the windows repair tool it would say I do not have permission to fixboot... wow nice job microsoft... after doing a bit more research I learned that the newer builds give this error when attempting to fix boot. I found a video on youtube which helped me alot but took quite a while to download the older working repair tool(installation media) but his video was fairly well put together. link here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRCyb7FzWFY). I followed his guide and this time with the repair tool that he shared in the description of his video, I was able to perform the fixboot (bootrec /fixboot) however one of his commands required the copying of bcd to the system reserved partition. The copy failed, however at this time running all the other bootrec commands seemed to go fine. So I exited command and went to the automatic startup repair, which to my surprise worked perfectly... (after a whopping 30 some hours of pulling my hair out of my head over this mess) And windows began to boot. At this point I gave my thanks to the poster of the video and shared my experience with his video in the comments below.) Now When windows booted up I downloaded the bcdedit tool. Personally I used the multi boot tool from this site (https://www.boyans.net/dual-boot-repair-windows-10.html) and selected repair mbr and boot record. This fixed my boot issue windows would boot normal at reset. However now my android was gone but thats okay.
At this point I just reinstalled the android x86 again over the same ext4 partition without formatting and added the windows to grub. This was perfect however when selecting windows did not boot. To fix this I had to edit the grub menu.lst and change the drive from hd(0,0) to hd(0,2) to point to the fat32 partition which had been somehow displaced to sda3. In order to do this I ran android in debug... when debug is running just hit enter and it give you a prompt... from prompt type without quotes "cd /mbr/grub" when the next prompt comes up you should be in the grub directory where the menu.lst is. Now type without quotes "vi menu.lst" this will take you into a text editor (note you can also change your monitors and resolution permanently in grub menu this way) using the arrow keys navigate to the line you want to edit, in my case the last entry which was windows entry when you get to where you need to edit hit the "i" key this will allow you to now enter and edit the text. After making changes hit "esc" to save changes type ":w!" then hit enter. To exit type ":q!" this will take you back to prompt. Now reboot your system and finally the results I had originally hoped for a multi-boot system with windows 10 and android. Now if you are attempting to do this and are looking for a guide to install I will make this just a little longer to make sure you dontt make the same mistakes I made.
1a) before you attempt to install a dual boot with grub... make sure your system reserved partition is fat32 if it is not you need to change it to fat32. as grub will not boot on ntfs partitions.
1b)you will need to have a blank partition, if you have spare room on the drive you can shrink your volume and create a new one. There are plenty of tools out there to format ext4 even from windows. Make sure you format it before installing. (if you are lazy like me you can format ext 4 from the installation, but there is a chance that you would need to reinstall again and choose not format to get the windows entry in grub)
1c)once your partitions looks the way you need and you have a working fat32 system reserved partition you are ready to move on. ( If you have to change a ntfs partition to fat32 I highly suggest you dont install anything until you have repaired the boot menu and tested it first to make sure it works)
2)create your install media... I prefer to use rufus as it is quick and easy, and I prefer the official android x86 as the 8.1 r3 is stable and works great, you can use whatever image you want though, lord knows i test newer versions as they come out. when you have rufus and the android x86 iso of your choice load rufus select your usb drive and select the iso with the browse button. then just hit start allow it to format and when it is done you can boot into your usb
3)To boot into your usb you may actually need to edit your bios and enable virtualization and make sure safeboot is not enabled, also you need a uefi system for x64 distros so if you have an older legacy bios you will need the x86 version instead or the system wont boot
4)When you finally get it to boot you will find the menu to use it as a live cd or install, select the install.
5a) You will now be asked where to install to. Pick the ext 4 partition you created for it.
5b) Now it will ask you to format choose do not format (again if you hadn't formatted the partition ext4 you may do it now, but you may have to reinstall and not format the next time to add windows to the grub menu)
6) You will now be asked to install grub answer yes, if you do not answer yes you wont be able to get back into your android partition again until you do.
7) Now it will tell you that it found a windows partition and asks you if you want to add an entry, select yes... if you do not you will have to make your own grub entry to get back into windows later or completely delete grub from the partition later.
8) Finally it will ask you if you want to make the system read write... select yes, if you select no i can not guarantee you will be able to install anything inside of the system.
10) The end... Installation finishes but do not click launch... instead click reboot. The reason for this is that I have noticed if you launch at the end of installation the grub somehow manages to disappear and you end up having to completely start over.
Enjoy your android x86 / windows multi-boot system.
make sure your system reserved partition is fat32

There is no system reserved partition on my laptop since I have a UEFI laptop.
Should I proceed ?
Hi
I am on Windows 10 ( 32-bits system) on an oldish Intel 2- Core 14-2120 3.30 GHZ 32-bits CPU. I want to virtualize a 2nd OS ( Windows 10) in order to switch between the two OS without having to reboot each time. Unfortunately all the Virtualization softwares I have looked into, are designed for 64-bits. I tried a few of them and I invariably get a message that I cannot install because a 64-bits platform is required.
I have been able to install only an older VMware app. ( v. 5 or so) It did go in. and I was able to create a VM box by following the instructions. However I hit a brick wall: when I try to install the CD from the optical drive, I do get the Windows Logo on the VB screen, but it stops there and I cannot install the virtual Windows 10. Why? How can I finalize the 3nd OS installation?
Thanks
Ittiandro
VirtualBox is available as 32-bit edition, too.
It didn't help me
It would be helpful if you specified what virtualization applications you had used for this. I know for sure that there are virtualization apps that allow you to virtualize a 2nd OS (Windows 10) on 32-bit systems like yours. I suggest that you try using VMware 7 for this, as I have often used this piece of software myself, and I can say that this is the best virtualization software that I have tried for purposes similar to yours. I won't be able to test any other virtualization apps of this kind since I have a 64-bit operating system now, but I'm sure you will succeed.
