Hmm interesting for those that want to play around with this OS, though still not sure if people have been able to install via the ISO successfully....

We waited for Android to come to Netbooks and Laptops, and then Google said, wait it’s Chrome OS for netbooks, and we got confused, now, allow me to confuse you more, with Live Android, a project hosted on Google Code website, providing you live iso file for android.


You can download a normal live iso image file for android to use on your laptop or netbook. Burn it on a cd, ( DvD won’t  work ), insert cd to the cd drive, and reboot the computer/laptop, and you will have it ready to test, without making any change to your system.

Creating a Live USB for Live Android

You can contact them on twitter, if you need help. I did get help through twitter, really fast. I was trying to create a Live USB using the iso file, but they said, its not ready for using on USB drives.

So, netbook users ( most of those netbooks come without a cd drive ) you may need to wait until version 3.0. The current version has some problem with usb file creator. When it’s ready, you can use this program to create a Live USB.
