Approximately one and half years ago I wrote a post about installing Android x86 on PC. You may find here the post: <../../../../2014/09/22/installing-android-on-laptoppc/>

I used grub-customizer to manage my grub. Here is how to add a new entry to show android in the grub menu. Add a new entry.

See more about grub-customizer in the following link.

Add following information as shown in the right hand side of the image.

android-grub

Just in case, if you are looking to copy paste the source lines then:

insmod ext4

set root=’(hd0,8)’

search –no-floppy –fs-uuid –set d8c2350c-037b-4e56-8c9f-b52a6807eef7

linux /android-4.4-RC1/kernel quiet root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=android_x86 video=-16 SRC=/android-4.4-RC1

drivemap -s (hd0) ${root}

chainloader +1

initrd /android-4.4-RC1/initrd.img

The lines written above highly depends upon the installation of your android os like partition name etc. that’s why I recommended to read the previous post to relate things. Ask if something is unclear.
