(Part 1 on X86 Android)\r
In this video I install the Android 4.4 Kitkat x86 release on my Akoya M1222 netbook as Windows 7 Starter Edition wasnt really working smoothly on this machine. \r
\r
I did use Ubuntu on it very successfully but with the new X86 Android release I just had to try it. Check out the video to see how I did. \r
\r
It supports all my hardware out of the box! And it supports the Google Playstore out of the box!\r

Want to install?\r
Prerequisites\r
\r
- Download the latest Android-x86 ISO file see link in description of video\r
- USB flash drive or a bootable CD/DVD drive\r
- Ensure there is sufficiently free hard disk space on the computer/laptop on which you want to install Android-x86 OS. Bascially free unpartition space that you can select from the installer\r
\r
I either a tool to make a bootable Linux USB stick or burn the ISO to a CD and boot from that. for example is a tool you can use. Or \r
\r
Then boot your computer and follow the instructions like I did in the video.\r
Select ext2 as file format for the drive that seems to work best and easiest. Do opt to use the Grub loader - it will even make your system multi boot if theres a partition with Windows on it. But installing a OS next to an existing OS does risk you loosing your data or the ability to boot into windows so thats something you should take into account. \r
