… and after a few seconds more, I was greeted by this image on my Eee PC 701G display.
After a few seconds the Android boot logo was visible … Then a Android boot menu was shown and I was able to select the Android Live system entry from boot menu. Connecting the USB tumb drive to my Eee PC 701 4G, pressing the on button, pressing the ESC key to show the BIOS boot device menu and then select my USB thumb drive as boot device was all what I did. Will Honeycomb run on such a machine, although Google told us that a Tegra2 platform is mandatory for Android 3.x? Also, some people explained to me, Honeycomb won't run on a machine with a desktop resolution of 800 x 480 pixel.īecause I'm a "guy born stupid and never learned a lot", I decided to give it a try. I still own a Eee PC 701G from my first Netbook project (the machine still has a place in my "hall of fame" of valuable tech gadgets). Will Android x86 3.2 fit for an old Eee PC 701G? For my testdrive I created two USB thumb drives, one with an Eee PC version and on with a ASUS version of Android x86. iso file and unetbootin are discussed here (German).
The steps to create a bootable live version of Android x86 on a USB thumb drive using an Android. But a more interesting question is: how would the live version of Android x86 fits for Netbooks. Here I have blogged (in German) how to use Virtualbox as a device emulator for Android using Android x86.
