Google Wants You To Try Out Its New Os Called Fuchsia!

Internet giant Google has released its mysterious Fuchsia operating system for developers to test it on its high end Pixelbook and also contribute to its development,

Google has been working on Fuchsia operating system for around a year now, and Google hasn't made it clear whether Fuchsia open source OS would in future be a replacement for Android or chrome OS.

Procedures and installation guide needed for developers to install Fuchsia on a Pixelbook which runs a Chrome OS have been released by Google.

Google explains in the installation guide that the new OS can also run on the Acer Switch 12 and Intel NUC. Developers working on Fuchsia were also aiming for it to run on Blackberry Pi 3. And also, the OS doesn't support ARM-based systems.


However, installation process for Fuchsia which is called 'paving' seems complicated. The installation relies on two machines, one machine acts as the sasaran and runs Fuchsia while the second serves as the host where Fuchsia is built with install media and from which the operating system is streamed to the target.

"The Fuchsia install process, called 'paving', requires two machines, the machine on which you wan to run Fuchsia ('target) and the machine on which you build Fuchsia ('host),"Google explained in the installation guide.

"Host and sasaran must be able to communicate over a local are network. On your host system you will build Fuchsia, create a piece of install media, and stream a large portion of he system over the network to the target."

Fuchsia which is not based on linux but Zircon, is designed for larger memory devices with faster processors such as smartphones and PCs.

Google's Fuchsia Os Will Be Able To Run Android Apps

Google have been working on it's Fuchsia OS for some years now (since 2016) and it has been gradually gaining progress, though we are yet to see it start rolling out for devices, news regarding the OS development keeps pouring in.

Latest news suggests Fuchsia OS will be able to run Android apps like the way Chrome OS does when it finally shows up on devices.

According to a new file spotted by 9to5Google posted on Android's open source project website, Fuchsia OS will use a special version of ART or Android Runtime to run android applications.


"These targets are used to build ART for Fuchsia," the REDAME file said, adding that the version of Android Runtime will be installable on any Fuchsia device using a .far file package.

 "They differ from usual android devices as they do not sasaran specific hardware. They will produce a fuchsia package (.far file)," the file read.

Though it is still unclear how Fuchsia will use the Android Runtime, what we know for certain is that Fuchsia will be able to run Android applications, and the OS will be able to run on PCs, mobile phones, and tablets.

One of the major reasons why Google wants Fuchsia OS to be able to run Android apps is to make it easy for Android users to switch to the new platform when Fuchsia OS finally launches.
