May 04, 2020. This thread should help those out there trying to install Jide's RemixOS on the DV8P (Dell Venue 8 Pro & maybe other BayTrails). DISCLAIMER - I am NOT responsible for any damage to software or OS. Please read all the way through to familiarize yourself. I am providing this to be nice. CR 72 is mostly working on the Dell Venue 8 Pro (3845), 64-bit, including WiFi and sound. Here's what I see not working: Bluetooth Screen brightness Screen sleep Automatic booting No battery level.
Hey all,
Unlock macbook air. Tomb of the snow prince. Mac mini 3 1 yosemite. Hope this is the right area to be posting -- my apologizes if its not. Was just wondering if any of you had any experience installing Arch Linux on a tablet? Right now I have Arch running on my Lenovo s400 touch laptop and was very impressed with how nicely Arch interacts with the touch screen. This got me thinking about maybe installing Arch on my Dell Venue 8 Pro I picked up a few weeks ago. I read also on some guys blog about how he installed Fedora on his Dell tablet but was having problems obtaining propritery touch drivers or something.
Anyways I bought a micro-USB to USB cable and had a crack at trying to boot my Arch USB on the tablet but I ran into some problems trying to disable secure boot. I'm still going to poke around on there and see what I can do -- I'm sure its possible I just have to figure it out. If I make any more progress I will update this post/thread. Mac 10 7 free. In the meantime though was just wondering if any of you guys on here had had any luck booting an Arch ISO on a tablet, any tablet really and if you managed to get an install up and running. I'd be really interested to hear. I did see this wiki article: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Tablet_PC but that'll be more helpful after the install is done. https://herejfiles543.weebly.com/wolf-quest-download.html.

Install Linux Dell Venue 8 Pro 5830
Early last year I received a Dell Venue 11 Pro (5130) tablet as agift.It had Windows 8 and evenupgrading to Windows 10 I found it - well, not very useful.Why you ask? The applications I wantedto use work only on Android or IOS.Sohence another research project - this one took several months and then some!I tried many versions of Android, Remix OS, 64 bit and32 bit versions, dual boot options and design loads.I will not bore you with all the iterations and failed attempts - trust me, there were many!
Remix OS for 32bit worked with dual boot and installing from Windows was straight forward using their install utility. The downfall, Wi-Fi would stop unexpectedly and usually in the middle of a movie, causing the family to look at me with a funny look. Most of the Appsseem to work, but first you have to side load google play using GMSActivatotr.apk.
Since the intense stares were increasing, I decided to go with a straight Android load and found a way to utilize the entire diskstorage - there is a trick to get Android to recognize the entire diskstorage rather than the default 4Gb storage.
What Worked and What You Need
- A USB Thumb drive
- The Android X86- 4.4-R5 ISO image
- Rufus 2.11 install utility
Steps to install:
| Disk format utility in Android Install |
| Storage greater than 4gb default |
- Download the AndroidX864.4-R5 image to a windows pc.
- Download Rufus 2.11 to thewindows pc.
- In the bios settings of the Venue Pro, you mustturn off Secure Boot and ensure booting from USB is enabled.
- Run Rufus, and pick the Android Image.
- Pick the USB drive (be careful with this step not to pick your OS drive).
- Format and install the image as an ISO.
- Boot from the USB drive on the tablet (eitherhit the fcn F12, or hold the volume down key after power-up to bring up the boot menuselection).
- On the Android boot screen, pick install to disk(3rd option).
- Using the disk utility, SelectCreate/Modify partition, pick all the disk partitions and delete them (this will destroy any data, so make sureyou have saved anything off the tablet, this includes anything in windows asyou will wipe that off the tablet).
- Create a new partition. Pick a small primarysize.This is the trick Imentioned.I made mine 1Gb in size.
- Create a secondary partition using the rest ofthe space.
- Write the new partition data, then quit the discutility.
- Install Android on the second partition. Answer yes to all remaining questions. Formatit NTFS (ext3 doesn't work - the tablet just will not boot).
- After it installs, it will ask about the size ofthe data.img file, enter the size of the second partition minus 1Gb for the OS size (this will take a while to write).
- Once complete, Reboot and Android should bootup.
Summary
The only app I found not to work so far is the Time WarnerTV app. All household automation apps, screen cast (I use localcast), HDMovies, Kodi and others all seem to work and update.I hope this helps others out and shows open source can work.Good luck!
Until next time - happy computing
