Stuck on logo during Android-x86 boot I'm trying to install Android-x86 on USB for my new HP laptop. I have followed the instructions on Android-x86.org. My issue is that after the initial install, it never boots again, it just gets stuck on the Android logo.
I have seen a few posts such as this answer:

when you change the internal frame where the UEFI firmware settings to the EFI framework setting change the boot order you have to make a small partition for grub go back and change it back otherwise it won't boot the second time

but unsure of how to do this.
I have also seen this answer:


In boot menu select Installation - Install Android-x86 to harddisk
In Choose Partition menu select Create/Modify partitions
In Do you want to use GPT question select No
cfdisk program will open
Select New and select Primary as partition type, set size to 100 MB and select Beginning
Select bootable. Now the Flags column should say Boot for the new partition
Select the free space and select New and select Primary as partition type, leave size as default to fill the remaining free space
Select Write and type yes and press Enter
Select Quit


but I'm stuck in the fact when I click on create/modify on this, I get cgdisk not cfdisk, and it's not as easy to use. I don't know why this is happening. Before I realised what to do, I was accessing cfdisk, but now it's only cgdisk.
I have purchased 4 premium USB sticks just in case the issue was due to a bad USB, but it's not the case and I'm just so frustrated.
Any help at all would really be appreciated.
well I've found something that might help you ... I recently installed androidx86-9.0-rc1 as a dual boot (unlike you) , and I too faced this same problem that it booted for the first time just fine but gets stuck in subsequent boots ...
so I tried uninstalling, re-installing it to see what's wrong and what I found that when I am on Windows and from there I try to switch to already-installed androidx86 [by choosing restart option in windows / by entering bios from windows and then booting to androidx86] , it gets stuck [and gets stuck in subsequent times too, once you did such] ...
so for this , you must boot to androidx86 directly after you Power on your pc when it's initially shutted down
supposedly you're on windows , and say you want to switch to androidx86 [newly re-installed , not the one that got stuck ] , so dont restart windows ; just shut down the pc and power it on to boot to androidx86 ... just note that this is my observation only for dual-boot case
