Today I downloaded the ISO file for the latest Android X86 (64-bit)version - the stable build for Android 6.0 AKA Marhmallow - from https://osdn.jp/projects/android-x86/downloads/65890/android-x86_64-6.0-r1. I have installed this on a virtual machine with 2 processor cores, 4 GB RAM and 20 GB Storage which I think is more than sufficient for this specific OS.
Earlier I was having this problem where the system would boot into CLI and not GUI hence I googled a bit and followed the instructions from http://techanji.blogspot.in/2013/04/android-wont-boot-into-gui-only-command.html which worked perfectly fine and now I have proper Android boot logo but I kept my system to boot for 15 minutes without any progress which makes me think this has stuck at boot!
A bit about setup:
- I did not choose GPT for partioning
- I have made one primary partition of 20 GB and made it boot partition
- I have formatted my partition with ext4 file system
- I installed GRUB but not EFI GRUB
Hopefully, these details are enough and you guys can help me with this.
