Hi Keisuke,

I've made a video to show how to boot android-x86 up thought would be
easier rather than explaining it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaxvqGmYJZE

The image I build from source but you could use the .img file that you
download too and use 'dd' to copy it to your USB drive.

Hope that helps
