6. Boot Process

  1. Windows Boot Manager or BIOS loads GRUB stub.
  2. GRUB loads kernel with parameters: root=/dev/sdaX androidboot.hardware=android_x86.
  3. Initrd mounts system.img as /system and data.img as /data.
  4. Android boots normally.

2. EFI and Legacy BIOS Support

Version 1.8 brings critical updates to boot-loader integration. It supports both traditional BIOS (MBR) and modern UEFI systems. The installer automatically detects the system firmware type and installs GRUB2 accordingly, ensuring that the Android boot entry appears correctly in the Windows Boot Manager or the UEFI firmware interface.

Great article, one of the best I’ve ever found in the web.
Just a question: did you have a local kubernetes cluster to make your example or cloud instance as Amazon EKS or Google GKE?
Thanks

    Hi Marco,
    I’m running in on the local instance of Kubernetes on Docker Desktop.

Is it possible to extend this Jenkins setup to be able execute Testcontainers test in the pipeline?

    Well, if you have a test that uses testcontainers it is automatically run during the build. The only problem, in that case, is the lack of Kubernetes support and the requirement to have access to the docker deamon.

    Isn’t it related with your Kubernetes instance?
