Cool Android x86

Didn't found it anywhere in XDA so this is a heads-up. I'm not in the development crew, I'm just an enthousiast.

http://www.android-x86.org/
Quote:
This is a project to port Android open source project to x86 platform, formerly known as "patch hosting for android x86 support". The original plan is to host different patches for android x86 support from open source community. A few months after we created the project, we found out that we could do much more than just hosting patches. So we decide to fork our code base that will provide android x86 support on different x86 platforms, and set up a git server to host it. To reflect this major change, we create this new project.
Tried it, it works flawlesly on my Asus EEE 901!! I installed in on an HP Pavillion. It even recognises the card reader/wifi/bluetooth/ethernet/camera! AMAZING!

Last Stable (1.6)
Last Eclair

Program to make a bootable USB:
UnetBootin
LiLi

Or you can create a VirtualBox Machine (Like i did. Instructions in their site)


Cheers

DONATE TO ME
I actually think this IS on here somewhere... Just not really well explained... and in broken English... lol

I did this on my Acer aspire one 722 dual core netbook. (Using the Asus file, most things work except sound and mic)

Problem is, after a number of uses, SOMEHOW my boot sector became corrupt... and I had to repair using a Windows flash drive...

So, I would stick with RECOMMENDED machines only. Don't experiment unless you're ready to fix it. :)
