As early as the end of last year, Android
The x86 plan has started. Android was released and downloaded through Google group. The original version is not very good. Recently, android4.0.3 is also available, which is more stable than the previous one. It also supports WiFi, Intel hardware acceleration, and file compression. Ext3/ext2/NTFS/FAT32 and other formats. Most netbooks can install this tool.

We can create a USB flash drive to run Android ICS on netbook.

Next I will briefly introduce the installation section.

Currently, the android 4.0.3 x86 version is available for download in the following versions. I suggest using the Asus version. My friend's machine is AMD, And the amd version cannot be installed. It is okay to install Asus. We recommend that you use the Asus version.

Android-x86-4.0-eeepc-20120101.iso

Android-x86-4.0-amd_brazos-20120101.iso

1. Create a USB flash drive.

Because most of the small books do not have an optical drive, it is easy to create a USB flash drive to start it only by using a USB flash drive.

Please first go to http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/download unetbootin according to your system environment,
Windows, Mac, and Linux are available. Decompress the package to a directory.

Then, insert the USB flash drive in FAT32 format into your computer, start the unetbootin software, select the path for Android iOS, and then select the USB drive letter. Click OK. A boot disk is created.

2. Boot Android 4.0.3 with a USB flash drive

This step is very simple. Plug in the USB flash drive and restart the machine. Note that you may need to first enter the bios and change the boot sequence of your computer to USB boot, as shown in figure

Then start the computer. If everything goes well. The following options are displayed. Choose not to install and start android.

Then you will see this Thula.

Then, like a real Android machine, you can create a Google account and other settings. You can ignore it directly. (Note that if you stay on this page all the time, it means that your iOS and your machine do not match. My amd machine stops at this step.

If everything works properly, you will see the android 4.0.3 interface. In fact, it is not much different from android3. You can see the version 4.03

Do not install it in VMware. You 'd better start it with a USB flash drive. Installation in VMware may fail.

After a series of basic settings. For example, set WiFi (yes, this system supports WiFi), and download the Android Market. You can install software. Most software can be installed

Several small plug-ins and programs are installed. No problem accessing the Internet
