I managed to run and install android x86 4.0 RC1 in VMWare. The problem however is that I have no internet.

I went to the console and ran netcfg eth0 dhcp. Eth0 then gets a valid IP address but when running ping the host doesn't exists. (ping google.com) So I pinged the router which responded correctly. Some posts suggest to add the DNS by either setprop net.eth0.dns1 dnsip or setprop net.dns1 dnsip. I test both but with no result.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

BTW,

  • The VM is configured to use NAT.
  • When using bridged (which is recommend by some) the dhcp action fails

I assume you have either figured this out or moved on, but when I had this happen I would set the DNS to use Google's public DNS servers. This seemed to work for me.

setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8
