Yes
Which download did you use I tried the IMG and during interactive instillation it tells me I need to format and instillation fails. I tried the iso download and I'm unable to write it flash. I successful got and older version to work but it doesn't have play store or a file explorer nor can I install a file exploreI have some very good new guys : the guys over at android x86 released a build that is superior to the Intel IA versions.
The build is Android x86 4.4.4 r2. It supports the Iconia W700 sensors , wifi, sleep and more importantly it provides ARM support
(YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!).
I will be making a video review very soon.

Ok i modified my post above, everything is working now. when no USB-keyboard is connected vol+ and vol- sends GRUB_TERM_KEY_HOME and GRUB_TERM_KEY_END. when USB-keyboard is connected vol+ and vol- sends B and Cnow i can triple boot win8.1, ubuntu14.04 and android x86 4.4-r2 without USB-keyboard and with grub2 boot-manager.
nize.
what key is used to select/enter when no keyboard is connected? windows key?
and can you attach binarys?
thx. but i got an error ->
\boot\grub\x86_64-efi\normal.mod not found.
can you zip your entire boot\grub folder pls ?
btw. "END" is Volume down? and volume up cycles through the menu? because gummiboot does the opposite....
error: file '/boot/grub/x86_64-efi/normal.mod' not found.
thx. but it still doen't work
i put content of
grub.tar.gz\grub.tar\grub\
into
E:\boot\grub\
and
E:\boot\grub\x86_64-efi
and
"E:\boot\grub\x86_64-efi\normal.mod"
exists ! but i still get the same error message
Code:error: file '/boot/grub/x86_64-efi/normal.mod' not found.

Sorry I meant Surface RT
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
surface RT is ARM. Android IA is android Intel architecture, ie, x86 with Intel extensions, ie Intel core i3 and above only. There is no such thing as an operating system which is not architecture locked, I would have looked into that before writing the tutorial if I were you....Hmm, then you could try this image, but I can't promise anythingat least this one isn't especially for x86 system
