I'd boot a different version of Linux like Ubuntu off a memory stick then FSCK the drive Android is installed onto.  7.1 RC1 and RC2 will fail to boot if the drive is dirty from not being shut down properly.  I've already reported this a couple months ago.

Does it boot in live mode? When you install do to hard drive, in the end of the installation process, when it asks you to reboot or to run Android X86, does it run normally? I hade the same symptom updating 6.0 r2 to 7.1. r1. The solution, in my case was to had parameter "androidboot.selinux=permissive" (with no "" quotation marks) to the GRUB. My system is a dual booting Xubuntu/android x86, and the custom GRUB was created trough Xubuntu.

Hello! Thank you for your time! System has dual boot - Windows 10 and Android 6.0 - x64. I  created additional two partions - first fat 32 for UEFI (GRUB), second EXT4 for Android. Android 6.0 - working properly. 

But Android 7.1 is not booting in live mode. System rebooting, with message "[36.203040] SysRq : Emergency  Remount R/O"
Instalition process to HDD  finish normally, but after reboot , system start load Android, and reboot again with message "[36.203040] SysRq : Emergency  Remount R/O"

I have parameter in GRUB -    linux $kdir/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.selinux=permissive buildvariant=userdebug $src $@

Take a look at this: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-x86/ByRiRyX4-8E
I would also try to download a new iso and create a new bootable pen. You should also try the 32 bits iso to see if it boots live mode.
If you can install and run the 6.0 version, try to upgrade that version using the 7.1 r1, choosing your android partitions and not formating it when asked.

The GRUB parameters you refer are from de installer options or the parameters of the actual GRUB? Are you using Grub2Win? Are you sure that "androidboot.selinux=permissive" parameter exists in the GRUB you have installed?

Hello! Thank yuo for your time!

I try upgrade my version 6.0  to version 7.1 (install and not format partion). I  have installed ExtToFsd in Windows and I can read Ext4 partion in Windows.  As result - now, on partion EXT4 I have two folders :
-android-6.0-r3
-android-7.1-r1

In grub.cfg I write only one entry

set timeout=5

menuentry 'Android-x86_64 7.1' --class android { 
        search --file --no-floppy --set=root /android-7.1-r1//kernel
        linux /android-7.1-r1/kernel root=/dev/ram0 buildvariant=userdebug androidboot.selinux=permissive DATA= quiet 
        initrd /android-7.1-r1/initrd.img 


As result - nothing change.......Whet booting Android 7.1 - my system reebit  with message "[36.203040] SysRq : Emergency  Remount R/O"

Hello! 

Yes. I try start 32 bytes version,  but system reboot too. For example - my system reboot, when I try start Android 7.1 from USB Flash - in Live mode. For example, when I use this USB Flash on ASUS machine - Android 7.1 started normally..  As  I wrote upper, before reboot (it's loop reboot) , in DEBUG mode :

I found when I tried to install Android 7.1 on a GPT partition it would not boot.  The box did not see a bootable partition and went back to BIOS.

I finally deleted the entire partition table completely and created a DOS partition table and then GRUB created a bootable partition.  Note that deleting a partition table is not the same as deleting a partition.

I am guessing this is an issue with GRUB or the program that creates the GPT partition table.  I am not an expert on either though.  Note that if there is anything valuable on the Harddisk, messing with the partition tables will probably cause it to be lost.

Hello! Thank you all!

This problem is not a partion, and  is not a GRUB.  For example: I download ISO image and create bootable usb stick (using Win 32 Disk Imager). I try start Android, using this  bootable usb stick, and on my machine (DELL XPS 12) - Android 7.1 is not started in LIVE mode, but using this bootable USB stick on ASUS 5550 - Android start and work properly. On DELL XPS 12 - have BINDER'S error , when I start Android in LIVE DEBUG mode , I can read messages:

[     52.032395] init Starting sevice'gatekeeperd'.....
[     52.065217] binder : 2617:2617 transaction failed 29189/-22 size 0-0 line 3004

 I cannot find avoiding binder issue ....... How avoiding binder's error?

binder has something to do with the graphics subsystem.

You might want to look at what graphics card you have and if you have another graphics try that.  Perhaps Android doesn't have the right graphics driver.
