The invention relates to a method for transplanting an Android mobile phone operating system to an Atom development board, belonging to the technical field of an intelligent mobile phone operating system. The method comprises the following steps: downloading and installing development tools in the Linux environment; downloading a Linux kernel, modifying kernel codes to enable the Linux kernel to simultaneously support the Android system and the Atom CDK development board, and compiling the Linux kernel to generate a kernel mirror image; downloading Android source codes, and compiling the Android system to generate a system file; copying the generated kernel mirror image and the generated system file to an sd card; and installing a PUTTY client on a computer, inserting the sd card on the Atom CDK development board to be connected to the computer, starting the PUTTY client, entering the Kboot program loaded by the Atom CDK development board, and enabling the Kboot to automatically load the kernel mirror image and start the Android system. The invention enables the Android system to support the Intel Atom CDK development board by modifying the Linux kernel codes. As the Android system is more and more popular on the market, the Android system based on the X86 architecture certainly appears, thus the invention has strong foresight and realistic significance.
