In previous post i talked about installation of Android 4.3 JellyBean on Computers. And Now, This is a How To Guide for How to Root Android x86 4.3 Jellybean installed on Any Laptop, Computer or Netbook. As we all know, Android 4.3 brought with it some extra security features which caused some small issues with root. These have been solved by the likes of Chainfire and other developers, meaning we have root once more. This is their work, I’ve just botched it together to work on the Android x86 4.3 system, which works slightly differently.
You will need:
- A device with Android x86 4.3 on it
Optionals:
- Another Linux based OS – this can be an OS on another partition on the device or a live disk/USB
- Root permissions in that second OS and access to the terminal
- Knowledge of which partition Android x86 is installed onto and which is its root folder (if you didn’t mess with that, it tells you in the script)Instructions:
On Android x86:
- Download the Attached zipBelow and extract it using a file manager
- Press Alt+F1 and use “cd” to change directory to where you extracted the zip
- You should go as far in as the “README” and “install.sh” files
- Run:
Code:sh install.sh
Follow the instructions on-screen. It tells you the rest.
On a linux boot:
- Download the Attached zip, Download links Below and extract it to somewhere memorable
- Open your terminal and use “cd” to change directory to where you extracted the zip. You should go as far in as the “README” and “install.sh” files

Follow the instructions on-screen. It tells you the rest.
Reboot back into Android x86, it should have root now
