[Remix OS for PC] lollyjay:
Thanks to HypoTurtle for providing the .img files! I used them for this, and please give him thanks too. Here is the link to his post: http://xdaforums.com/remix/remix-os/systemless-root-remixos-64bit-t3368131

Looking for a step-by-step to root the most recent .205 Remix OS? I have tried here to put together a procedure that most can follow. Please let me know how it works for you.

PLEASE REMEMBER THAT MESSING AROUND MIGHT RESULT IN PROBLEMS IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.

This is only for 64 bit. Please note that you MUST type all command line commands Exactly as shown (including spaces and caps)

	First, download and install Remix OS from their website. Go through the complete installation.

	Next, using the Remix Browser, download the following four files:

To substitute the new ramdisk.img:

	Open the File Manager twice from the file launcher. You should now have two windows open. You can move them around and resize as needed.

	From one File Manager window, click on the Drive# with your Remix OS folder (Usually it it the bottom drive on the lower left). You will see a Remix OS folder.

	Click on it to open it. Now you should see the files including one named ramdisk.img.

	Click on the ramdisk.img and select Rename from the upper right menu (you should see a check symbol... click on this and then click on the three dots to bring up the Rename command). Rename the ramdisk.img to ramdiskorig.img (this will save it in case you want to accept OTA (just rename ramdisk.img to ramdiskroot.img and rename ramdiskorig.img to ramdisk.img))

	Tap on the Download Folder of the other File Manager window to open it. You should see the four files you downloaded.

	Drag ramdisk.img from Download Folder on the first File Manager window to the Remix OS folder in the other window. You have now replaced the original ramdisk with the "rooted" one.

Now you need to transfer the su.img file into the /data partition:

	Press Alt-F1 to open the command line. You should see a line of text with the # symbol.

	To copy su.imginto /data, at the command line type: cp /data/media/0/Download/su.img /data/su.img and press ENTER. Note the locations of the spaces after cp and img. If you receive no error statement then you did it correctly.

While you are here, you can activate Google Play store:

	type sh /data/media/0/Download/Playenable.sh and press ENTER. You should get an acknowledgement that files are being disabled and enabled.

	Press Alt-F7 to exit the command line

	Reboot your computer again into Remix OS. You should be rooted, and have Play Store if you did everything correctly. Don't be concerned if you have a little trouble getting Play Store to work at first. Just be patient and keep trying. You may need to go to Setup/Accounts and delete and reenter your Google account.

Many users want to have a different launcher from the one in Remix OS. If you wish to use your launcher of choice:

	Download your launcher from Play store

	Press Alt-F1 to open the command line

	Type sh /data/media/0/Download/Launcherenable.sh and press ENTER. You should see an acknowledgement if you did this correctly.

	Now follow these steps to activate the new launcher:

	Press Alt-F1 to exit the command line.

	You will be prompted to select your launcher. You will have to minimize the launcher (in upper right corner) in order to click the prompt. After enabling your launcher, be sure to go to the Settings/Applications and set your launcher to Open in full screen mode.

Set to go! Have fun.
