Having a go at this but unsure about creating the partition – should it be bootable, and should I worry about the warning that data on the disk may be destroyed?
Siddharth says
It has to be bootable, everything else should be fine I guess.

Thanks, I got it sort of working but the generic version of Android doesn’t seem to be a good fit on my Lenovo tablet PC.

Hello ! Siddharth…
Hey can you please tell me that is this OS is permanent or just temporary?
Will I be losing my other data that are on my PC ?

hi everybody,
first of all it is virtual operating system that occupies our some hard disk space and memory. but it does not delete your partition table and other data so don’t worry to install it while it says all data will be deleted. it is permanent operating system and you can use your internet with this os but u have to make some setting, obviously. thank you.
