Emulator stops after couple of minutes with segmentation fault (core dump)

See original GitHub issue

I have used a fresh install of Ubuntu 18.04 and and followed the procedure mentioned in readme. When I execute emulator -writable-system, the emulator gets started but stops with Segmentation fault.

I have also tried with macOS but it didn’t help. Have you faced any similar issue? If yes, how do you resolve this?

Thanks in advance.

I have resumed the experiment and using physical machine.

Yes I can boot and run emulator using Android Studio. My user is in both kvm and libvrt

Yes, m command took a lot longer time to run.

I have been able to boot the emulator with following command, emulator -writable-system -gpu swiftshader_indirect It uses graphics: software

Thanks!

I use a Debian physical machine and I used -writable-system -gpu swiftshader_indirect and my emulator has still not crashed for one day (and it’s usually every hour). I tried a lot of things but it seems to be a working solution! Thanks!
