I'm trying to install a VirtualBox virtual machine for developing on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) but I cannot properly configure the internet connection.
I followed many tutorials on the web and tried to apply some workaround suggested here on StackOverflow (for example Android x86 porting, unable to make it work ), but I still can't connect from my Android machine.
Some details:
netcfg
on android console it returns only the lo
interface (127.0.0.1).If you are going to be using VirtualBox, you need to use the eeepc.iso image not the asus-laptop.iso image.
Also, you will want to double check a few settings on your VM to make sure they are configured correctly:
