I downloaded LiveAndroid, a LiveCD for Android running on x86 platforms from Google Code, to try on my Macintrash.
Currently I am running OS X 10.5.7 and Windows 7 (build 7100) on my Late 2006 Macbook (Core 2 Duo, T7200). I’m also using rEFIt as my boot manager. The Android LiveCD showed up as Tux on the boot screen and I got to the Android desktop with the message, “Please connect charger, the battery is getting low: less than 15% remaining”. I was running on AC and the battery was fully charged. I dismissed that warning and went into the console (alt+F1) to try to configure networking.
The liveandroidv0.2.iso supports DHCP, so I tried to get the network running using the howtouse live-android instructions:
ifconfig eth0 yourip netmask yourip’s mask
e.g. ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.10 netmask 255.255.255.0
That resulted in ifconfig SIOSIFADDR: No such device
I also tried ifconfig eth1 but received the same message. I didn’t look at the startup log. What’s the use of anything
