I am trying to use Android x86 8.1 in Virtual Box using Ubuntu 18.04 as a Host OS, the problem is that once it is installed, if I send the shutdown signal, and then shut down the system ...

enter image description here enter image description here

When I start the virtual machine again, it boots from the Live CD, instead of the local disk (so I have to install the system again) enter image description here

In the Live CD, there is an option under "Advanced Options", that allows you to boot from local disk, but when I select that one, I have this problem

enter image description here

I guess, one solution might be do not power off the virtual machine and just save the machine state .. But, I would like to know if there is a solution for powering it off without having to install it again every time you shut it down

Edit: I also try to eject the disk this way: enter image description here

But I continue having this problem: enter image description here

    Why not set the boot disk to the local disk in VirtualBox? And/or eject the virtual CD?

  • Open the properties of the VM in the VirtualBox GUI and adapt as wanted.

    Bootloader installation failed - this is not a VirtualBox problem.

I have already fixed it .. It was so simple .. The file system must be ext4 .. ntfs and fat32 won't work .. enter image description here And then it is proceed with the normal installation enter image description here Be sure to eject the virtual CD, and you shouldn't have problem booting it from GRUB enter image description here
