The following is a pretty decent historical page about the pre-(U)EFI MBR (Master Boot Record) boot process: https://thestarman.pcministry.com/asm/mbr/STDMBR.htm Note that EFI/UEFI -- occurred much later in time than MBR... Related: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_boot_record You might also wish to check out some emulators, most notably Bochs (https://bochs.sourceforge.io/) and QEMU (https://www.qemu.org/)... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
With both of those you can make some really nice DOS programs. Which you can then run in bochs (not virtualized, but an emulator. Close enough :) ). Source: about 1 year ago
Are you sure that module isn't just called bochs? It is a DRM driver for a graphics device provided by the Bochs emulator. Source: over 2 years ago
There are other projects out there that can do that kind of emulation though. You might look into QEMU and Bochs. Https://bochs.sourceforge.io/. Source: over 2 years ago
However, most of these are rather old since they mention floppy drives and the legacy BIOS. If your machine is very recent, it's possible the code won't even work. Ou can still use Bochs, qemu, or VirtualBox to run it, if you insist. Source: over 2 years ago
Your question is invalid (and my point proven, sadly) unless you know how to run Linux Deploy on a Chromecast. You were too busy trying to be the smartest guy in the room before thinking to ask what I was actually doing with this thing in the first place. Source: over 1 year ago
Yes; I use Linux Deploy on most of my rooted Android devices to set up a chroot environment easily (it's kinda old though, so there may be much better alternatives). I used my old Amazon Fire as a Pi-hole that way. Source: over 1 year ago
I published a fork of Linux Deploy that automatically installs Pi-hole and Unbound, configures SSH/RDP access, and optionally installs Raspbian PIXEL Desktop to any rooted Android 5.0+ device. Source: over 1 year ago
I use LinuxDeploy to stage my chroots, simple and easy (also available on Play and F-Droid) on rooted. I even have a mobile/handheld software defined radio (or as I like to refer to it as, a 1st gen, poor persons TriCorder). Can't do this in Termux or a proot, but in a chroot and easy as eating cake.

I haven't used android in a year or two, but I believe you can install a chrooted linux on an android phone through an app. Things like LinuxDeploy: https://github.com/meefik/linuxdeploy. Source: almost 2 years ago
