I want to start x86 emulator with docker image on mac os.
Why not support?
How to start up x86 android emulator on mac os with docker image?

Hi @Caroline0071
Did you check the Quick Started section? https://github.com/butomo1989/docker-android#quick-start
It is possible but it is very slow.

Hi @Caroline0071 ,
It is because there was issues with HAXM and KVM. if you want to use x86 on Mac, you can give a try by using VM.
@Caroline0071 commented on GitHub (Feb 14, 2018):
hi @butomo1989
So docker images is not support to run android x86 emulator.
And I think also that it's a issues compatibility mac kernel with docker.
My idea was setting up android x86 emulator in the docker to excute UI automation.

Hey guys,
I tried to run the android emulator inside Virtualbox 6.x inside a Ubunu 18.04 guest os and I didn't get it to work. I searched for some advises how to maybe enable KVM inside the guest os, but the only thing I found was this. So as I'm reading this correctly KVM is not supported on OSX? Are there other ways to virtualize the x86 emulator?
@Caroline0071 Have you managed the virtualization now? Would you share your researche?
@diemol Do you have any instructions besides using a software like Virtualbox?
@diemol commented on GitHub (May 12, 2019):
The only way I know to run something with KVM on OSX is by using something like Parallels or VMWare Fusion (both paid with free trials). Sadly, I think there is not a free software that allows you to do that.
@HasBert commented on GitHub (May 12, 2019):
@diemol thank you for your response. 😘 Maybe I'll give it a try.
@budtmo do you have some experience with this topic? Shouldn't we update the documentation if this isn't working on OSx without using paid software? I'm not 100% sure if there maybe is a way to get it to work, but I need to spend more time on it.
Thanks for your time 😉
