Android on x-86

Android on Toshiba Tecra A 3:

The instructions of how to port Android to x-86 PCs don't link directly to the SDK download files from the same site: This here links.

Only that partitions, once having been formatted with raiser and installed a Linux/Unix/Android kernel needn't run Windows anymore. Less final will be the free virtual boxes from Oracle, but appropriate for all platforms.

Who just wants to switch between applications for different platforms should explore these portable apps, because they can be installed on  USB drives and on SD-cards, with and without the portable platform. Android SDK packages for ASUS and EEPC's are available at Google code pages for download.

Android Virtual Devices on PC and Laptop via USB

  At Android-x86 , porting Android to x86 PC's, various source codes and links to Google Code pages are as interestingly discussed as the SDK and NDK download packages. Installations from a virtual box via the OS, executable from USB Stick or from CD with Android 0.1 - 0.3 Live let us choose the diplayed size freely. The best may be to explore the ANDROID Developer Guide Site before. Here is a short video of the default Google SDK r1.6 installation and an ugly image of my last virtual device, because I had installed no camcorder for screen recording.
  This article at Android Authority provides with a complete step-by-step description for a very special virtual box on a USB drive. The download of that Android4 API must be requested indirectly from inside of the virtual box installation process, but then it is possible to turn pixel areas of an ordinary PC screen into touch-screen areas of Android Ice Cream Sandwich.. Important only is to disconnect the drive again and before the next system booting from the next desired partition.
 Who doesn't want a virtual box, not to realize any SDK and who does the less intend partitioning his entire OS for several systems, may be happier with the link above. The instructions are, simple but complete, perfect for installing an Android Virtual Device on a USB Stick and run two Android versions on x86 and x64 PC's as on Touch Screen devices. All platforms are appropriate for these packages, but defining a small proportion of the screen for the planned device before its virtualization recommendable.
