Android x86 porting, unable to make it work

Question

I\'m kind of new to the whole porting issue and I got to it because of the slowness in the emulator provided with the Android SDK.

I downloaded the android-x86-3.2-R

Answer 1

In my case I had local network so my router acts as dhcp server

So in VirtualBox,

 set network to bridge
 PCNET Fast III (may be others work I have not tested)

to switch to console type Ctrl + F1

then on command line type

setprop net.dns1 dnsserveraddress

in my case I did

setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8

8.8.8.8 is google dns ..

and it worked thereafter
