I want to install Android 7 X86 along with Windows 10 on my Dell Latitude 11 5175 tablet.
The thing is, if I install on a fat32 partition I can not make the data partition larger than 2GB.. I need at least 32GB or more (I have a free 64GB partition)
When I format the partition in ext4 or NTFS, it does not boot.
So how am I'm able to install this now and have a large data partition??

Also in live boot, it works just fine, but I can't turn the tablet into standby/sleepmode.
When I push the powerbutton, nothing happens.

I only get to the powermenu when I hold it down for a few seconds.

Any ideas how to fix that?

Why can you not boot when installing to an ext4 partitions? I prefer adding manually to a Grub2 boot menu. https://goo.gl/umA35f
