    running android in VM no internet

    I have installed android in my VM but can't get a wired or wireless internet connection in it. How should I configure it to work?
    I downloaded the android file from this website

    I hadn't heard of this until your post, so I went looking.

    It seems internet support is a bit of a problem, but I did find one post in their "forum" that stated you must use bridged networking in the VM.

    I also saw a post there about internet not working in the demo version.

    I don't know if that will help you any or not.

    By "VM", do you mean a program like VirtualBox? If so, there are different ways to configure this, depending on the program. Please let us know what program you are using.

    I am trying it in Virtual Box 4.2.4. Other distros connect to net in it but not android. I tried bridged and no change

    You need a patched version of Android to get internet in VM. I have set one up in vbox and it works. I will find you the link tonight when I got home. Check back late tonight or early tomorrow.

    just want to verify - it's not the demo version, right?
