Hi guys,

sometimes the machine does not boot to to Virtualbox switching the virtual adapter from VboxVGA to SVGA or other reasons.
The virtual adapter is important, other problems that can be found are using the x64bit android instead of the x32 version, sometimes Phoenix OS boots, while Lineage or others do not. Older computers have older video cards, especially on Ubuntu, where the same driver is used. Its recommended to use the newer driver. Its better to use Android 6 or close. Adding "nomodeset xforcevesa" works so you can boot for 1 time, after which you have to re-add it. This is only possible on Virtualbox, with Vmware there is no hope for switching the adapter.


Here you can find the explanation:

But that is a temporary solution. How to make it permanent?
When starting the installation in the Kernel, can a permanent configuration be established?

Hi!

The temporary solution is in order for you to be able to boot the machine and apply the permanent solution, however I haven't done that in a long time and I don't have the instructions in our database currently. Please try google and report the result here, no matter of its outcome. If its a failure I will assign it to the CC team and we will try to search for one that works for you. Just tell us, what is VM and VB version?
