Android OS on a Desktop Computer - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, well I've been trying to see if I'm able to install an Android OS on a Desktop Computer. I'm sort of new, at working with Android OS and script. So I have a spare desktop computer from dell. Dell Vostro 410 it is, the system is based on Intel Core 2 Quad processors and is equipped with a 800MHz system memory and (up to six) 512MB graphics card(s). I have 2 ram cards in both 512 MB.
The compatible one I can find is eeepc, and at that it's glitching.
Is there a way to install a different rom, but still be android?
How do I really tamper with the kernel?
Is there some easier way to messed with the OS?

[Q] HELP!! (Advanced ROM)

I have an Asus Zenfone 6 which uses Intel Z2580 CPU. It's a X86 CPU. So theoretically, you can install Windows or Ubuntu Desktop on this device. I have a TWRP recovery now, but how to really install an Windows or Ubuntu on this device(Not Using VM like Bochs)?? This phone has 6 inches screen so I think install desktop OS will be really interesting.
By the way, my phone is not listed on the devices list, how to add it?

Help me install apks on this (locked down) Android tv Box.

Hello. Sometime ago I acquired a TV box with Android, but to my dismay, it's (almost) completely locked down, I can only download applications from it's own store. Tried also reasoning with the dev team of this product, but to no avail. The box is question has two lateral USB (Type A) ports labelled "Mouse" and "OTG". Here are its specs:
Processor: Rockchip RK3066 Dual-Core 1.6GHz Cortex A9
GPU: Mali 400 Dual Core
RAM: 1GB DDR3 712Mhz
Flash: 8GB MLC NAND Flash
Android ver: 4.4.3
Well, even through it's locked down, it comes with Kodi so I can still launch installed applications (even the ones they've hidden) such as the Configuration Menu and etc from Kodi's own application launcher, launch command line applications through Advanced Launcher, access the File Manager within Kodi and mount/dismount USB devices (actually they're auto mounted).
I'll provide more stuff about the device if necessary, please help me sideload apks on it.

My best advice is to try running Ubuntu in virtual box. I've done it before without much trouble on windows 7. I recommend checking out this thread for that. It's been a huge help to me in the past. And you can find video tutorials on how to build over here.
If you just wanted to compile twrp or a kernel it probably wouldn't be a problem with those specs. You're probably going to have a lot of issues trying to build an OS with a system like that though. That's simply not enough RAM. Compiling loves ram. I've ran out of memory trying to build with 8gb of RAM in virtual box before. Your CPU specs are also very important here. You'll want at least 4 cores to run the box by itself. It is very system intensive, and can easily make your host OS inoperable while running. I have the following specs, and virtual box will cripple my PC if I try to build an OS on it.
CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 @3.8GHz (6 cores, 12 threads)
GPU: Nvidia GTX 1050 (3gb)
Ram: 8gb DDR4 @2800MHz
6TB HDD (7200rpm)
For simple projects it's very useful, but for OS building in vitual box you really need a very beefy machine.
Languages: Linux, and lots of it. There's no way around that. You'll also need to be very familiar terminal commands. It is not for the faint of heart. I wish you luck.

Installing a common Linux Distribution on an Android Tablet

Because I spent a lot of time the last few days installing Arch Linux on my x86 Tablet (featuring an Intel Atom Z3735F) I was wondering if the same thing (installing a common Linux Distribution) is possible on an Android Tablet?
I have a pretty old Acer Iconia B1 with a common MediaTek Dual-Core CPU, 512MB RAM and 8GB internal storage here, but the hardware specs should be enough considering that Arch Linux x64 + i3 Window Manager = ~140MB of RAM.
But first - is it even possible to do this? And where to start?
