I’ve successfully built various images on Linux (Mint) with the gcc4 tools.
I’m now trying to boot the image in Bochs. The instructions here
(https://www.haiku-os.org/guides/virtualizing/bochs) almost work but Bochs
complains about the disk geometry being incorrect. 2 questions arising if I
may:

Why not just boot with an ISO image and use it to install on a blank
virtual disk?

Granted, it's been probably 10+ years since I've used Bochs... so I
wouldn't know if that works.
