Install Instructions:
LEGACY
1. Extract Project ROC
2. Run Remix OS Installation Tool
3. Select Project ROC with the corresponding version number for the ISO
4. Select desired install location: Hard Disk or USB
5. Select target drive and partition
6. Press OK and allow the installer to finish
7. Close the installer and navigate to the installer location (Since I installed to my C: partition, it was located at C:\RemixOS\)
8. Open menu.lst with your favourite text editor (I used Notepad++)
9. Add this: REMOUNT_RW=1 after SRC=RemixOS/
Make sure the red code is added like this:
Example:
Code:
default 0
timeout 10
title Resident mode - All your data and apps are saved
find --set-root /RemixOS/kernel
kernel /RemixOS/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86 androidboot.selinux=permissive quiet SERIAL=random logo.showlogo=1 SRC=RemixOS/[B][COLOR="Red"] REMOUNT_RW=1 [/COLOR][/B]DATA= CREATE_DATA_IMG=1
initrd /RemixOS/initrd.img
boot
10. Save and reboot to Project ROC
11. All versions from .205 will have the Xposed Framework files included, but must be manually installed to be able to use. If you want to install and use Xposed Framework then follow these steps!
Boot Remix OS with Debugging
To do this add the flag: "DEBUG=1" just like earlier with the "REMOUNT_RW=1" flag! (You can remove it once you have installed Xposed!)
When it asks you to type exit do not type exit, instead follow this: 1. "su" (allow su permission 2. "cd /system/xposed" 3. "sh flash-script.sh" 4. "exit" 5. "exit"
e.g.
>su
>cd /system/xposed
>sh flash-script.sh
>exit
>exit
12. Update all apps via Google Play Store
UEFI
Thanks to @Vioner for letting me use his instructions!
Now you need to make the change persistent:
For Remix OS installed on hard drive:
LEGACY BOOT:Apply adequate changes to grub.cfg or menu.lst file in your Remix OS installation folder. Editing both files won't hurt
UEFI BOOT: Apply adequate changes to EFI:/boot/grub/grub.cfg file in your ESP (EFI System Partition) - example path Z:/boot/grub/grub.cfg
Instruction on how to access grub.cfg file on Windows
BEWARE, ACCIDENTALLY REMOVING OR MODIFYING SOME FILES FROM ESP PARTITION WILL RENDER SYSTEMS NOT BOOTABLE - WILL REQUIRE RECOVERY TOOLS.
To access ESP, you need to:
start cmd.exe as administrator
Kill Explorer -> Mount the ESP -> Start the Explorer as admin using below commands:
Code:
taskkill /f /im explorer.exe
mountvol Z: /s
explorer.exe
If you fail to mount the system partition then it's probably already mounted. Start notepad as administrator then browse My computer and you should find a SYSTEM drive - that's ESP.
Edit & save the EFI:/boot/grub/grub.cfg file
Reboot and test if the changes worked(if you reboot into Windows, the ESP should be inaccessible again - it automatically unmounts upon restart)
For Remix OS installed on a USB stick:
You will need to access USB partition labeled REMIXOSSYS.
Filesystem of this partition is not supported by Windows, so without any 3rd party apps you won't be able to modify the needed files.
You will need to either use a Linux distribution or edit from Remix OS on other device. Be dexterous
LEGACY BOOT:Apply adequate changes to REMIXOSSYS:/SYSLINUX.CFG
UEFI BOOT: Apply adequate changes to REMIXOSSYS:/boot/grub/grub.cfg
Add a post with your results after using the guide and hit Thanks it it worked for you List your device brand and model & GPUs models + Remix OS version

Can you get into Windows, or this error happening when you boot Remix OS? This seems to be related to the menu.lst file, did you edit it like shown in the picture?

Yes I can boot into Windows. This error only appears whenever I install remix os and I just copy pasted and saved carefully all what you have posted in first post.
And that is same as the picture I think.

Go to the remixOS folder and open the uninstaller, then reinstall it, open the menu.lst file and just add this: REMOUNT_RW=1 after SRC=RemixOS/
eg
default 0
timeout 10
title Resident mode - All your data and apps are saved
find --set-root /RemixOS/kernel
kernel /RemixOS/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86 androidboot.selinux=permissive quiet SERIAL=random logo.showlogo=1 SRC=RemixOS/ REMOUNT_RW=1 DATA= CREATE_DATA_IMG=1
initrd /RemixOS/initrd.img
boot

Is this version working in Ubuntu?

Yes it will work, just use grub-customizer to add an entry for remix os!
But I have realised that it wont work instantly, you will need to use windows, install it (follow the instructions),and then boot it (not from ubuntu's grub but windows), let it boot up then restart and boot from grub! If you have skype I could tell you how to do it easily! Just PM me!

you can fix playback 1080p problem

Your problem is with the grub; not sure which grub @moman2000 added but if it's the one jide included then hopefully the ntfs grub module was also included and it just needs to be insmod'ed in grub.cfg/menu.lst

For me 64bit version don't start. Bootloop on remixos. With official version no problem.

I suspect it is Xposed not being comaptible with x64, I will need to ask @rovo89 where the files go for x64!

Remix OS - Installation, ROOTing & more!

Hi there. As you may already know, Remix OS has already been released for PC. Remix OS is "re-designed" Android which works on PC and has many good features such as multitasking, Windows shortcuts, etc. In this thread, I want to teach how to install Remix OS, ROOT it and many more. So, let's get started.
1. Install Remix OS on HDD [Using Ubuntu]:
So, to install Remix OS on HDD, you will need Remix OS iso or img file and Ubuntu installed on PC.
First of all, create folder called "remix" (without quotes) on / directory on Ubuntu.
From the Remix ISO/IMG, put the following files in /remix: initrd.img, kernel, ramdisk.img, system.img.
Make a directory /remix/data.
There you go, Remix OS is now on HDD... But how to boot it? You have to add it into GRUB menu. To do this:
Open terminal in ubuntu and type in:
Code:
gksudo gedit /etc/grub.d/40_custom
You'll be prompted for root password, type it in. Then you'll get gedit window with some texts in it. Add this code at the end of the text:
Code:
menuentry 'Remix OS' --class android-x86 {
insmod part_gpt
search --file --no-floppy --set=root /remix/system.img
linux /remix/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive CMDLINE
initrd /remix/initrd.img
}
Then, in terminal, run this command to update GRUB configuration:
Code:
sudo update-grub
Again, type in root password and vuala, now you have Remix OS installed on HDD and it is available in GRUB menu. Rebooting should yield a menu in GRUB called Remix, which might work. The way I've done it here, Remix will share storage with Ubuntu, but will be unable to see the contents outside of /remix/data. If you prefer, you can pre-allocate space for Remix using an image for /data like so:
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/remix/data.img bs=1M count=XXX
mkfs.ext4 /remix/data.img
(where XXX is how many megabytes you want data.img to be). An image is convenient for portability and backup purposes, so it's up to your preference. I prefer to use /remix/data over an image just because of the limited storage on my tablet.
This is also pretty non-destructive. To remove Remix, just revert or remove /etc/grub.d/40_custom, run update-grub, and if you wish, delete /remix.
2. Install Google Play Services:
After booting into Remix OS, you'll notice that there is not any Google Play Services/apps like Play Store, etc. To install them, you have to:
Download GMSInstaller.apk from here.
Install APK file and run it.
Click on "One-click to install Google Services" (this will automatically download google play services).
There you go, now you have Google Play Services installed.
After installation, you may be unable to install apps from Play Store. To fix this, you have to clear data for Google Play Services, Google Services Framework and Google Play Store and then restart PC/notebook. After restart, try cleaning data again for Google Play Store again.
3. Root Remix OS [Using Ubuntu]:
Now I'll teach you how to ROOT Remix OS. You can learn more about root access here, if you don't already know it.
Download and Extract RemixRoot.zip to desktop
Copy system.sfs from your pendrive or hdd wherever you have installed Remix OS to the desktop
Open Terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and type:
Code:
sudo apt-get install squashfs-tools
cd Desktop
unsquashfs system.sfs
This commands will create a new folder on Desktop. There will be system.img in that folder
Copy that system.img to RemixRoot folder
Open terminal again and type:
Code:
sudo -i
Enter your password (If you are running in live cd then no password)
Change directory to RemixRoot folder.
Code:
cd /home/user_name/Desktop/RemixRoot
If you did it right next line of terminal will end with RemixRoot# followed by blinking cursor
Now run rootx.sh script by typing
sh rootx.sh
If everything goes right there wont be any error message and you will get a root.img in your RemixRoot folder
Rename it to system.img and copy to your pendrive/hdd replacing previous system.img
Reboot and go to RemixOS and update SuperSU binaries
That's it! you are now rooted
4. Update Remix OS to the latest version [Using Ubuntu]:
So, new version of Remix OS is released and I want to show how to update your current Remix OS to the latest version.
First of all, download new version of Remix OS (current is 2016012301) from here. Remember to choose EFI.
After downloading, extract system.sfs file from the img and put it in Desktop.
Open the termial and type in:
Code:
sudo apt-get install squashfs-tools
cd Desktop
unsquashfs system.sfs
This code will:
Install squashfs-tools which is needed to extract system.sfs file
Point working location to Desktop
Extract system.sfs file and will create a new folder on the Desktop. There will be system.img in that folder
Now, after we got hands on system.img, which previously were unavailable, we need to copy that system.img to /remix directory which we created in section 1. Install Remix OS on HDD [Using Ubuntu]. This will overwrite previous system.img also. You can also copy initrd.img, kernel and ramdisk.img, but that files are rarely updated.
More instructions may or may not be added.

Installing Play Services went fine, although even after deleting the cache, rebooting, reinstalling entirely, no installations were possible via the store, for me.
Others had success tho.

@DroidTwe4kz With this method is Remix OS installed or will it ask for resident or guest mode each time?

It is installed, like Ubuntu. It will save all apps, files and stuff. It won't ask for which mode you want to boot
When I install this way I have an internal storage size of 3.8gb. Did I do something wrong?
1&3 success , 2 failed
1. Just format your target hdd or ssd with ext4 and install there. You will get full space of your media. I used a GPARTED live cd to inject linux sh commands. Any live linux distro is ok while you can use basic commands like fdisk, mount, cd, etc. BTW install requires you modify isolinux.cfg by adding INSTALL=1 DEBUG=0 to an install menu.
2. I failed. I tried various ways with no success. I checked the apps like Google Play*, Service* and they are there in frozen state. As soon as I unfreeze them, they are automatically freezing themselves. Strange...
3. Worked like charm.
Thank you your info.
-------------
P.S. Resident/Guest menus are only shown on live cd image. Once installed, you will see different GRUB menus and just click the first one. Good luck.

I think not. You can even create another partition and put files in it, but then you must make some changes in GRUB configuration file too.
BTW, there's how Remix OS appears in GRUB2 menu.

Stuck
Hello. So I have a problem. I have downloaded the file and placed all the files in the folder. I am running Linux Mint 17.3 based on Ubuntu but when I tried to boot remix OS I get stuck on a screen that's says Detecting Android-x86... Found at /dev/sda1 and nothing else. Did I do something wrong? How can I fix it? Thanks in advance.

install Remix OS to harddisk (like android-x86)

Hi all
I run android-x86-5.1 (on EeePC 1000H).
android-x86 offered
'Install Android-x86 to harddisk'
menu when booting from SD.
'android-x86' and 'Remix OS' ISO filesystem content look exactly same (see below)
so: Can the Remix OS ISO please be adjusted to also offer install to harddisk?
I read there are tools to install on HD from Ubuntu or Windows, but I am on android-x86 already...
Code:

How can I install in hard disk?
I went a different way than using the existing installer, probably because I didn't know it existed. I have it set up as a boot option in grub, which wasn't that hard to do:
1.Boot into RemixOS, Resident mode like you would by using a flashdrive
2.Boot back into prefered OS ( Linux will save you some time, as you can't really update grub.cfg from Windows)
3. Create a FAT32 partition , 8GB or more. You can use a label for it, if you want.
4.Add the boot entries to /etc/grub.d/40_custom . This is what mine looks like, for example :
Code:
#!/bin/sh
exec tail -n +3 $0
# This file provides an easy way to add custom menu entries. Simply type the
# menu entries you want to add after this comment. Be careful not to change
# the 'exec tail' line above.
menuentry "REMIXOS Resident mode - All your data and apps are saved" {
set root=(hd0,3)
linux /kernel initrd=/initrd.img boot=LABEL=REMIXOS disk=LABEL=REMIXOS quiet root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive quiet SRC= DATA= CREATE_DATA_IMG=1 DPI=120 UVESA_MODE=1366x768
initrd /initrd.img
}
menuentry "REMIXOS Guest mode - NO data and apps are saved" {
set root=(hd0,3)
linux /kernel initrd=/initrd.img boot=LABEL=REMIXOS disk=LABEL=REMIXOS quiet root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive quiet SRC= DATA= DATA_IN_MEM=1
initrd /initrd.img
}
Obviously, you will need to change out the partitions for your own, and for the DPI and UVESA variables, you can just delete them, as they are set for my screen (1366x768 15.6"), and might look really distorted for you. Of course, you can try tinker with those yourself.
It is quiet simple, but I don't know why is author of Remix OS "hided" installer.
-Prepare one partition on your PC HDD for install Remix OS
-Plug your USB with burned Remix OS in your turned off pc
-Turn on PC
-When GRUB menu loaded (Resident mode, etc...), hit TAB button on your keybord and type:
INSTALL=1
at the and of existing code, than hit the ENTER
-Installer will started, same as Android x86, select your prepared partition for install, and that's it.

No, I never install grub of android x86 or grub of remix or any "similar grub" cause they recognize only Winblows and don't recognize GNU/Linux, and I have 5-6 Linux distros installed on hdd. From other side, Linux grub don't recognize android x86 or remix os. Cause that, after I install android or remix, I boot to my main Linux distro and add entry for android or for remix in /etc/grub.d/40_custom.

Hi all
I run android-x86-5.1 (on EeePC 1000H).
android-x86 offered
'Install Android-x86 to harddisk'
menu when booting from SD.
'android-x86' and 'Remix OS' ISO filesystem content look exactly same (see below)
so: Can the Remix OS ISO please be adjusted to also offer install to harddisk?
I read there are tools to install on HD from Ubuntu or Windows, but I am on android-x86 already...

Hi!
I have a similar problem too...
Remix OS doen not work on my eeepc 900. I have installed it on the 16 GB SSD modifying
root=/dev/ram0 with root=/dev/sdb1 (my SSD)
and adding INSTALL=1
When the eeepc starts I see grub 1.5, I choose Remis OS but it is not starting. Then I see the same errors you can watch in this picture: http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160201/9574b4a6113671b412096942e994a50a.jpg if I choose to start with DEBUG=1.
Someone can help me?
Sorry for my English.
Just a FYI, in case anyone has missed the recent news, the update coming on March 1 will provide installation on Windows for dual boot and storage.

Hi!
Same problem with Remix OS Beta 32bit... Very sad!
The system stops with [email protected]_x86:/ # and blink blink blink

Exact same thing here. I switched from the official remix to the hacked version and nothing is different.

[GUIDE] Remix OS 3.0 alongside GRUB2

Hello everyone!
After a long day yesterday trying to install Remix OS alongside my already existing Windows 10 and Fedora 24 installations, managed by GRUB2, I finally completed the task.
I decided that I'm going to save other people wanting to do this some trouble, and post the updated guide, since personally I couldn't find it anywhere. It's mainly based on this guide and other similar ones (including the one by @remixtester here on XDA), and since RemixOS changed the install process a little bit, now it's actually done in 10 easy steps.
Recommended system requirements:
2 GHz dual core processor or better
2 GB system memory
Minimum 8 GB of free hard drive space
Internet access is helpful
1. Download the official latest Remix OS 3.0
2. Install Remix OS to a flash drive, using the provided Windows tool. If you don't have Windows, use Rufus or similar piece of software for your OS.
3. Create an at least 8 GB ext4 partition, and disable secure boot. Remember the partition number you are assigned
4. Boot from the flash drive, from the menu that follows click "e" on Resident Mode.
5. Delete > DATA= USB_DATA_PARTIOTION=1 and replace it with > INSTALL=1
6. Select your partition number, format it to ext4
7. Skip GRUB2, skip EFI GRUB and skip Write/Read Access
8. Reboot back to your Linux distro and open the Terminal
9. Log in as superuser and input: > gedit /etc/grub.d/40_custom
Add (do not remove the existing text in the file) the following text to the file. Replace the "X" in set root='(hd0,gptX)' with your partition number. Also paste the text exactly as is, the formatting is crucial for it to work:
HTML:
menuentry 'Remix OS' --class android-x86 {
insmod part_gpt
insmod ext2
set root='(hd0,gptX)'
linuxefi /RemixOS/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive SRC=/RemixOS UVESA_MODE=1920x1080 verbose logo.showlogo=1
initrdefi /RemixOS/initrd.img
}
10. Rebuild your GRUB:
For Fedora distribution:
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/Fedora/grub.cfg
For other Linux distributions:
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
Alternatively:
update-grub
Upon reboot you'll see Remix OS added to your OS entries and you should be able to boot up and use it just fine.
@engmia Great guide! Although I prefer Grub-Customiser!
The GUI makes everything so easy!
Just to be sure...

If that's my partition list, and that the 20 GO is the partition I created for Remix OS, then I should write set root='(hd0,gpt4)' ?
7. SKIP GRUB2, EFI GRUB and Write/Read Access
Click to expand...

So thats skip Grub2, skip EFI grub and Yes to W/R Access?
set root='(hd0,gptX)'

This means it will read set root='hd2,gpt4)'?
Another thing is it cant find /RemixOS/kernel
any ideas?
Ok followed each step by step and i end up with
something (hd2,gpt4) something
must load kernel first

on bootup.
Now previously i had it installed via windows 10 on my ssd where i deleted the entry from windows boot manager and put the entry in grub. Everything booted fine. But i didnt want it on my ssd. So i followed this to put it on its own partition on a hdd with ubuntu on it. Also when i try to do the grub2-mkconfig it says "command not recognized did you mean grub-mkconfig"

In Ubuntu you can just do
Code:
sudo update-grub
Ok still cannot get this thing going. So heres the run down
UEFI Boot only in bios
sda1,2,3,4 Only windows 10 it makes 4 partitions
sdb1 storage
sdc1 efi
sdc2 ubuntu
sdc3 RemixOS
sdc4 Swap
so i do everything that the instructions say and i get an error for unable to find /RemixOS/kernel and i need to load the kernel first. i think its detecting the partition now due to no having the disk hd2,gpt3 error
Is it possible to install grub/theme using Windows?

This sounds like an error due to a wrong path set in the GRUB configuration. Are you certain you have set the correct number for your device? Do you have 3 separate hard drives on your device?

Sorry for the late reply. Frankly I don't know how to help you, I can only repeat that to me it looks an error in the partition path. Try double checking what number has your distribution been assigned to terminal.
Guys, FYI we are reworking the INSTALL=1 installer. It should be done within 2-3 weeks. Initial release might be unofficial.
i clicked remix os on the grub and this messages shows up

Can I set the data partition to a specific partiorion on my hdd ??
I have booted RemixOS with no problems however i think it would be better if i could mount one of my hard disk partition as the data partition !!
How can I do that ??
I'm on Kali linux and refind bootmanager !!
Is there a way to disable the Flashing Remix OS logo and see exactly what's going on in the terminal?
It seems to stick for an awful long time on this screen. I've put the files in a seperate partition in Ubuntu /dev/sda3 (hd0,3)
The boot sequence seems to go fine right until this screen, and I'm using the UVESA=1920x1080
I have a Lenovo laptop, booting in legacy mode with an intel chipset.
Thanks for your help

This can only be done when install Remix to flash drive? What about hard drive?

Just make sure to check what the updates in the install procedure are, as you were informed the INSTALL=1 will be reworked and something might've changed.

I'm quite sure there was a full text boot option somewhere, try Googling it. As far as I could remember, the flashing logo was there when the install procedure wasn't completed successfully. Can you boot from a USB drive?
Make sure to see the last few posts. @Vioner informed the install=1 will be reworked.

Awesome. One thing to note, I could not get SuperSu to open at all while in DEBUG mode. I ended up booting normal Remix OS and enabling the debug console and doing it this way. Just a heads up!

Also, like I previously stated... If you also have another operating system installed (I have Windows 10 Pro x64) you can modify a few things about the new bootup process. Wherever you installed Remix OS (I've installed it to a seperate partition, so for me it is E:/), go there.
- Open the Remix OS folder
- Find "menu.lst" and open it with Notepad++
- Delete the entry for Remix OS DEBUG. Delete the whole entry
- Change "timeout" from '10' to '0'
- Save the file
It will look very similar to this:
Code:
default 0
timeout 0
title Resident mode - RW enabled
find --set-root /RemixOS/kernel
kernel /RemixOS/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86_x64 androidboot.selinux=permissive quiet SERIAL=random logo.showlogo=1 SRC=RemixOS/ REMOUNT_RW=1 DATA= CREATE_DATA_IMG=1
initrd /RemixOS/initrd.img
boot
What this will do is remove the entry for Remix OS DEBUG -- INSTALL XPOSED, force standard rooted/xposed Remix OS to boot automatically, and remove the 10 second timeout before the Remix OS selection allowing Remix to boot automatically after selecting it in the Windows bootloader. For advanced users, this can be accomplised in the Remix OS/Remix OS DEBUG selection screen also, by pressing Escape to enter the selection screen, "e" to edit lists, and following the on-screen instructions for deleting selections and saving.
Hope this helps!
Worked perfectly, thanks my friend.

Remix OS, can it be updated to use the Kernel from Android-x86 6.0-r3?

Hey guys,
Android-x86 6.0-r3 was released. It has new video drivers that I would like to try. Since Remix OS is basically Android-x86, is it possible to use the kernel from Android-x86 6.0-r3 on the latest Remix OS 3.0.207?
I was reading what Chih-Wei Huang said here.
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.handhelds.android.x86/28994
You don't need to rebuild initrd.img for new kernel.
Just replace the kernel image (bzImage)
and modules in /system/lib/modules.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I know this probably sounds a lot easier said than done. But does anyone know if the same kernel from Android-x86 6.0-r3 could be integrated into Remix OS 3.0.207 and does anyone know what is the process to accomplish this hopefully without having to reinstall everything from scratch?
Try and report here. Will mostly work as I tried something similar before but can't guarantee
I'll give it a try later. I'm thinking I can use RMXTools for this?
I believe the files to replace are in the system.img file?
I extracted the system.img with RMXTools

}
I'm assuming I can delete the folder 4.4.24-android-x86_64 and replace it with the one from Android-x86 6.0-r3?
Then hit create-img to rebuild the system.img file? I never used this tool so I'm not sure if that is the process.
I still need to find out where bzImage is located too
**Update**
Ok so I'm using Remix OS 3.0.207 64 Bit
I used RMXTools 1.5
First I made a backup of kernel and system.img under the RemixOS folder
1) Extracted the system.img from Remix OS
2) Deleted \lib\modules\4.4.24-android-x86_64 folder and then copied 4.4.62-android-x86_64 from Android-x86 6.0-r3 64bit
3) Repacked system.img
4) Replaced system.img with the modified system.img and also replaced the kernel file from the one from Android-x86 6.0-r3 64bit
Booted up and sure enough the kernel is updated and everything appears to be normal. However the MESA driver did not get updated.
Now I'm going to try to overwrite the whole lib and lib64 folders in the system.img from Remix OS with the ones from Android-x86 6.0-r3 64bit. Hopefully this doesn't break everything. I'll report back.
Well that made it not boot. Could be because that overwrote some files needed for the xposed framework. Besides the files I mentioned first, I had to research on which files are associated with the mesa drivers and only replaced those files and the kernel files and it looks like it worked
what changed?

Just the kernel was updated to the latest from Android-x86 6.0-r3 as well as the video drivers. That's all that I updated.
Now I really need to figure out how to disable the taskbar completely on Remix OS
Can you upload the modded iso, please?
I exactly made that with my old pc and it worked xD
Regardless... You're awesome!

Where is the system.img file? I only have a system.sys file inside the iso.

Extract the system.img from the system.sfs using 7-zip. If 7-zip couldn't do it as Remix OS uses newer SFS system, boot Remix OS and add REMOUNT_RW=1 at the end of kernel line in grub. System.img file will be created in the Remix OS installation folder.

7-zip does not decompress the file, and the command "REMOUNT_RW = 1" in the GRUB gives me error. Can someone upload the modified iso?
Thank you anyway.
I could modify the original system.img on the iso but does anyone know if I can use any iso program like UltraISO to add the modified file back to the iso without breaking the iso?

I think you can use UltraISO or ISO Master.

OK I modded the ISO. Testing it before I upload it. I only have a Laptop with no Windows right now to test. So I'm going to try it with unetbootin, using a big partition formated as EXT4 and set as active and I'll try to install it to the HDD using the USB created with unetbootin

OK!
I can test it too. I have a table-pc with Linux.
You can install Remix OS from USB:
> Prepare a USB flash drive with Remix OS installed & Boot from USB*flash drive
> Choose ‘Resident mode’, press ‘e’
> Delete USB_PARTITION=1 in the command line
> add INSTALL=2 (or 1 for manual install)
> Press ‘F10’ to boot
> The installation will take place automatically.*

It hanged up at the installation screen when I booted with the USB created with unetbootin. I ghosted a Windows partition and tried to install it using the Remix OS installer.
However I get to the Writing Speed Test
Formatting the data partition then I get this error
/init line 309: mke2fs: not found
It broke the iso. Unless the original iso does the same thing. I'm going to install using the original iso Remix_OS_for_PC_Android_M_64bit_B2016112101.iso
Otherwise I'll try your method
*Edit*
OK the original iso is broken lol
It gives the same error. Well it's very late here. Tomorrow I'll update the kernel and video drivers on this iso RemixOS_x64- Xposed- SuperSU- Gapps.iso
This is the one I use and it creates a system.img instead of syste.sfs as well plus it comes with the xposed framework preinstalled and the google playstore activated thanks to PizzaG

I recommend that you use Rufus to create booteable USB.

OK I updated PizzaG's RemixOS_x64- Xposed- SuperSU- Gapps.iso based on 3.0.207 with the Google Apps, SuperSU and Xposed Framework preinstalled.
It has the updated Kernel and Mesa drivers. Those are the only changes I made. I only tested it in dual boot using the Remix Installer Tool in Windows. However you should be able to also install to a USB and either run it from the USB or install from the USB using dayara's instructions.

You would need to prepare the HDD first, creating a ext4 partition and setting the partition active. You can do this using Hiren's Boot CD and using Parted Magic. More instructions are here: https://chubbable.com/remix-os-installation#hdd-single-boot-install
