Virtual machine installation will not say, the network is more, mainly in detail how to set the resolution, in case of the development of convenient use.

1. Add Custom Resolution

After shutting down the virtual machine, Note that the numbers are lowercase x, not multiplication sign .

Method one: The corresponding virtual machine's XML file "<ExtraData>" under the new line, plus the following content

<extradataitem name= "CustomVideoMode1" value= "480x800x16"/> <extradataitem name= "CustomVideoMode2" value= " 320x480x16 "/>

Method Two: Execute the command, where "VMname" is replaced with the name of your own virtual machine

Vboxmanage setextradata "VMname" "CustomVideoMode1" "480x800x16" Vboxmanage setextradata "VMname" "CustomVideoMode2" " 320x480x16 "

2. For ease of use, the virtual machine can be set up to simplify the use (Linux-related knowledge required)

1. Press ALT+F1 to enter the command line after entering the Android virtual machine

2. Enter MKDIR/DATA/FS

3. Mount the hard drive using the following command

MOUNT-T hard disk format/dev/block/hard drive name/data/fs

Mount-t ext3/dev/block/sda1/data/fs

Hang the hard disk on the/data/fs folder

4. vi/data/fs/grub/menu.list Edit boot Menu list (vi This command line editor how to use Google's own)

5. Add Vga=ask to the end of the first kernel line, as you did when you started it, save
