Virtualizing Pinephone Operating Systems?
#1
Hello all, first post after a long lurk!

I am planning to preorder a pinephone, and in preparation I would like to be able to explore the OS options so I can quickly settle on a daily driver. I am hoping to fully replace my android and this is basically the last step in my de-googling process. I do need some functionality for work however, so again, I would like to explore the available operating systems while I wait for shipping to begin.

Is anyone aware of a method of running any of the supported OSs in a virtual machine such as KVM? I tried to get iso files but could only get installer tools and .img files for the ones I was most interested in. If anyone has any insight I would very much appreciate it!
