Open the VM settings and remove the OS ISO from the list of devices - we don't need it any more.Īnother direction is to install old RemixOS to a USB stick and let the VM open the USB port to a Linux VM and "dd if=.

Once you're on the desktop, shut down the OS (properly).

Follow the OS install as you would any other.

I used the VDI file type with a fixed size of 8.00GB - simulating running it on a 8GB flash drive. I went with 2048MB and couldn't find the minimum required specs, but you should be okay with 2048+. I named mine RemixOS but it doesn't matter.

Create a new machine - type: "Other", version: "Other/Unknown (64-bit)".

PS: You can get a few more specific resolutions, but it's complicated and I'm out of time. Most likely Installation isn't ready yet, which is why the option is missing. I'll keep playing with it.Īlso, interestingly Google Apps are installed as well, but most things crash. I still haven't figured out why when the Guest mode from the ISO runs relatively okay. However, even after all this and getting to the Desktop, it's really unstable for some reason. Just add the "vga=XXX" to the first kernal listing and save it before rebooting. ex: "sudo leafpad /media/lubuntu/Androidx86/grub/menu.lst". To do this I just booted my Lubuntu LiveCD again, mounted the partition and then opened './grub/menu.lst' using a Root level Text Editor. So you can modify the GRUB menu.lst file to make it permanent. Obviously doing this every time is a pain.

Now you have it installed, but booting it is another matter. You'll see a scroll of output and then you'll reach the install screen.
