Lol i have a weird idea for you.

Remove your sd card and put it in card reader , format it and burn the iso there/ create a bootable drive and do installation

But if it works it will be too slow as it depends on read write speed of sd card

If it doesnt work maybe it can harm a lil bit to your hardware not sure though

So better not take chance. You cant do it with phone it wont work.

But whats wrong with pendrive?

Yeah i got it. Downloading

But it says " This version includes Oracle VirtualBox 4.2.12 dependency, so that you don't need to download and install VirtualBox manually" what does this mean? It runs inside virtualbox..? Vmware?
[Off-topic] replica9000:
Basically you need VBox. It runs a headless VBox session with it's own GUI. The GUI will add fake capacitive buttons, acceleration, and other libraries needed for Android. You only need to interact with VBox itself if you want to change the properties of the VM.

Wow. So simple meaning i need VMware?

And one more question, linux mint doesnt boot in virtual box. All other distros do.. Any idea why? It stays on blackscreen
[Off-topic] replica9000:
I'm not sure if it will run in VMware, I haven't tried.

Does Mint offer boot options? Try changing some if possible. Some versions of Knoppix would do this to me on certain machines, even though older/newer versions would boot with no issue.
[Off-topic] :
First of all it doesnt autodetect the distro, like ubuntu when i browse to iso it detects the distro automatically. And i chose other linux distro with 3.10 kernel. Thereafter shows mint logo bt doesnt boot after that jst blackscreen

No, it doesn't install Android x86, its more different. It kinda emulates the Android System while you run native Android apps. As far as my experience, no of your issues appear, but of course that depends on the machine. My setup:

Bluestacks emulator

Well, I enjoy myself going through this kind of trouble and the victory over the system after I've made it working again as well. :)

Nevertheless, I have tried the emulator bluestacks before and it was not suitable for me because it works a bit slow for my app Eufloria HD. You just cannot play a smooth game using it: The screen always stops, while on my new installation it runs perfectly. Also, I cannot test a second emulator like Limbo on another emulator like bluestacks.

The only problem left is: My Acer PC has a touchscreen as well but it is not recognized by the Android installation on my harddrive, also my wireless mouse and keyboard are not recognized. So I have to use a wired USB mouse connected to the PC for all the input.

Any ideas for solving these problems?

An i7 would be overkill if you primarily use your machine for gaming. A decent AMD CPU is cheaper and will be good for gaming, since the GPU should be doing most of the work. Unless we are talking about APUs, which AMD is just better than Intel for that.

[Off-topic] replica9000:
Sensible is up to you. If you want to see how each runs on actual hardware, why not? If you want to see how one compares in behavior or features, just use a virtual machine. Ubuntu or Linux Mint are considered noob friendly compared to most distros. Ubuntu is based off of Debian, but the defaults (behavior, dependencies) are different. Arch is nice, and has an excellent wiki if you need help.

He was telling you about Fluxbox, it's a light weight bare bones window manager. You configure it through text files. Most distros use a desktop environment by default. Something like Gnome or KDE, which are window managers, but also include a suite of other programs and cool effects.

Antix is basically a light weight Debian.

If you're into extreme OCing I'd recommend the Maximus formula if you want something that is built like a tank and don't care that much about OCing the sabertooth will run great and it's gonna be able to run the 4770k @4.5GHz easily and I think your GPU is gonna be louder than the mobo fans lol,I personally have no experience with AsRock but I heard very good stuff about them so it's up to you,oh and don't forget to check reviews for each mobo

Swap in my experience (I have little with arch, so forgive me if this info is incorrect) doesn't really count as a partition.

My setup is as follows:

dev/sda1: Windows partition (ntsf) on my ssd (80GB out of 128gb)

dev/sda2: mint partition (ext4) on my ssd (47.something out of 128 gb)

dev/sdb1: Windows data (ntfs) on my hdd (250gb out of 500gb)

dev/sdb2: Linux mint data (ext4) on my hdd (250gb out of 500 gb)

Linux swap partition 4gb

I am using mbr which limits you to 4 partitions and I still have a swap partition.

I currently want shrink the 258 GB Drive to a mere maybe 220 GB, so I can install Ubuntu using only the 38 GB. I just want build some stuff that uses Ubuntu only, like the FireFox OS. I want to use my Kindle fire, with 5 GB of Free Space as my USB Drive using DriveDroid. I am already downloading the .iso image. But my problem is:

1) Shrink the D: Drive to 220 GB

2) How to boot into Ubuntu, because my PC uses UEFI and cannot boot from the USB.

3) How to install Ubuntu into that 38 GB from the D: Drive.

So, I tried booting from the Kindle Fire, but the PC does not have a BIOS, instead UEFI, so I really cant boot into it. I dont know how to do. And I dont know how to shrink my Drive. And again, I dont know how to install Ubuntu into the 38 GB.

Sorry for butting in on this convo, but I personally think that any Debian or Ubuntu based distro could be considered a "noobs OS"

Is that a bad thing though? I don't think so. It's actually REALLY smart for those who create distros to make the distro user friendly, because that allows those who are new to Linux to install the distro and not feel overwhelmed while allowing the "techie" or poweruser to modify it to their hearts content. And (I'm guessing) that eventually turns into customer loyalty and more "word of mouth promoting" and donations.
