You can very easy do a normal” or manual installation to hard drive. A manual installation can also be done to a drive where you already have another Linux system (for example Ubuntu 22.04) installed. Read more about how to install AndEX 11 below. Android 11 was released 200908. About the Android-x86 project – my sources AndEX 11 is compiled by me with sources from the Android-x86 Project . All AndEX versions are also dependent of the Android-x86 Project’s activity and development. Following Android-x86 Project’s instructions you can build your own Android-x86_64 system. You will see this boot screen (when booting from a DVD or a USB stick). Boot animation during start up You shall see this boot animation when AndEX 11 is starting up. If not, something is very wrong. Click on the ring if you want to see the animation, Kernel Kernel 5.4.40-exton-android-x86_64 is used in AndEX 11 Build 220608. HOW TO do a simple manual installation ( FRUGAL ) of AndEX 11 to hard drive The system’s install function work very well in AndEX 11 Build 220608. You can, however, also do a very simple manually installation to hard drive . To be able to do that you must have at least one Linux system installed on your hard drive. You must also use Grub as boot loader. Follow these steps. 1. Download andex-11-x86_64-gapps-220608-1450mb-version-final.iso 2. Start up a Linux system (Ubuntu or…) on the computer where you want to have AndEX 11 installed. 3. Create a special partition for AndEX 11 or use the partition where you already have one Linux system installed. The one you just booted up or… 4. Create a folder called (for example) ANDEX11-220608 5. Extract andex-11-x86_64-gapps-220608-1450mb-version-final.iso to the root (/ANDEX11-220608) of your new partition (formatted as ext4) or to the root of (for example) your Ubuntu system. 6. Create a folder called data in the folder ANDEX11-220608 . 7. You will then have a folder called ANDEX11-220608 with four important files – the folder data, initrd.img, system.sfs and kernel – see the picture below. The folder /ANDEX11-220608/ data is very important! All your system changes will be saved to the folder data . You can’t even run the system without it. All other files which is in the ISO file can be deleted. When you have the folder ANDEX11-220608 in the right place it is time to configure Grub so you will be able to boot up AndEX 11 – see the examples below. ABOUT ROOT As you can see from the screenshot above I’ve added boot- magisk .img and initrd_real.img. That is to make AndEX 11 rooted , which it isn’t from the start. If you want to do that you can download boot-magisk.img and initrd-magisk.img . Change the name of the original initrd.img to initrd_real.img and initrd-magisk.img to initrd.img. After that you can su to become root. That can be useful if you want to change the system. For example remove system apps. For that to work you’ll have to make the system writable. Open a terminal and run the command su followed by mount -o remount,rw / . About Grub and dual-boot/multi-boot” If you already have have one or more Linux systems installed on your hard drive (which you must have to be able to install AndEX 11 Build 220608 manually) you can see below how to use Grub2 (which Ubuntu and most other Linux systems use as boot loader ). You should add these lines to /boot/grub/grub.cfg or /etc/grub.d/40_custom – for example : menuentry ‘AndEX 11 220608 (sda8-FRUGAL)’ { recordfail load_video insmod gzio if [ x$grub_platform = xxen ]; then insmod xzio; insmod lzopio; fi insmod part_gpt insmod ext2 if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then search –no-floppy –fs-uuid –set=root 35527b5d-4652-4bcf-97b5-27ff3b1f267a else search –no-floppy –fs-uuid –set=root 35527b5d-4652-4bcf-97b5-27ff3b1f267a fi linux /ANDEX11-220608/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.selinux=permissive androidboot.hardware=android_x86_64 DPI=160 UVESA_MODE=1366×768 SRC=/ANDEX11-220608 initrd /ANDEX11-220608/initrd.img } NOTE 1 : On some computers you may have to add nomodeset to the linux boot line. If so you may also have to remove DPI=160 and UVESA_MODE=1366×768 from the linux boot line. AndEX won’t start otherwise or you won’t have sound . NOTE 1 B : On my HP Pavilion 500-317no Desktop Computer I had to use the boot lines below to make everything work. linux /ANDEX11-220608/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.selinux=permissive androidboot.hardware=android_x86_64 nomodeset SRC=/ANDEX11-220608 I could also run AndEX 11 from hard drive on my Lenovo ThinkStation C30 using the same boot line. I.e. with nomodeset . NOTE 2 : The DPI=160 entry provides a hint about the display’s pixel density in dots per inch. This is an important setting – if the Android display’s icons and text look too small and crowded, increase this number. If things seem too big, make it smaller. NOTE 3 : The UVESA_MODE=1366×768 entry describes the display size. This is also an important setting. If you know your display’s actual dimensions, enter them here. But not all dimensions work – it sometimes happens that a display specification that’s possible in principle isn’t feasible in practice.
