I have: Debian GNU/Linux 8.4 (jessie) installed on old Gygabyte laptop.
Architecture: x86_64
CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit, 64-bit
Byte Order: Little Endian
CPU(s): 2
Model name: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T5250 @ 1.50GHz
2 Gb RAM.
I successfully installed and run android-x86-2.3-RC1-eeepc.iso on VirtualBox.
However I don't have vt-x | amd-v support and virtualization is SUPER slow.
I installed official Java emulator of Android and it was evem MORE SUPER SLOW.
Now I try install Android on my HD for dual boot.
I have Grub: 2.02~beta2-22+deb8u1
I try to install android-x86-4.4-r5.iso image on /dev/sda3.
Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type
/dev/sda1 * 2048 267446271 267444224 127.5G 83 Linux
/dev/sda3 267651072 308406271 40755200 19.4G 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT

/dev/sda5 308408320 312580095 4171776 2G 82 Linux swap / Solaris
I mount it and this what I have:
root@olgacomp:/media/olga# tree -L 3

When I reboot my computer, I don't see Android option in Grub list.
I know that new grub doesn't have clear config file.
I'm afraid reinstall Android with Grub installation, because all MBR can be lost.
How can I configure Grub for load new Android installation?
And another question: is there other options for emulate/install Android on old devise without VT-X support if this option will not work?
