Which of these is not LL files?
#1
Hi,

As seen in the image, i installed Android x86 in the same partition as LL. I just wanted to experiment what happens when you install more than one OS in the same partition. And, as result, x86 grub replaced the LL grub so I couldn't access LL because it is not shown in x86 menu. Now, I've booted into LL using EasyBCD (installed in windows) boot menu that led me to LL grub menu.

Android x86 has only 2 folders after installation (i noticed it when i installed it in empty partition earlier but i can't recall their folder names). One of them is obviously `cm-x86....` and i don't know which one is the other folder. I've already deleted this folder. Just wanted to know about the other one. I'm not familiar with Linux system files so I'd try not mess with them unless I'm sure.

Hmmm ... Looks like you have already messed with it.

I think the answer is pretty obvious and you've found the hard way; it's a mess and you shouldn't do that to start with. Is this Linux Lite 3.8? Looks like it is. I would reinstall Linux lite just to make sure evrything works fine; even if you manage to find and delete android's folders, there's not guarantee the filesystem will hold for too long, making your system unuseable. To find where android's files are, you might try using catfish; click on menu and type catfish, hit enter to start the app, once it does, in the search box type android and click on search

Hope this helps! Smile
