You can download various versions of 64-bit android for different Intel platforms from here.
Note that these are Betas and so I would recommend you do not try to install it onto your working Windows system! Luckily, most images contain a Live boot option so we can test it out without installing it.
The downloads are in the form of .zip files and contain a disk image which can only boot via UEFI.
To add these to your E2B drive you need to:
Note that UEFI booting from VBox will probably fail as it will refuse to boot from an incorrect CPU\chipset platform.

The downloads are in the form of .zip files and contain a disk image which can only boot via UEFI.
To add these to your E2B drive you need to:
- Use 7zip or WinRar, etc. to find the live.img payload file which will be inside the .zip download file, e.g. android-4.4.2_r1-ia1-haswell_generic-userdebug.zip has a live.img file under \out\target\product\haswell_generic. I picked this one for my Z87 Haswell system.
- Extract the live.img file from the .zip file file to a temporary folder (e.g. C:\temp\live.img).
- Drag-and-Drop the C:\temp\live.img file onto your MPI_FAT32 Desktop shortcut to automatically create a .imgPTN file
- Copy the new live.imgPTN file to your E2B USB drive (e.g. to the \_ISO\MAINMENU folder or \_ISO\LINUX folder) and rename it to something more meaningful (e.g. android_x64_442r1.imgPTN)
Now you can boot in MBR mode (or use QEMU or VBOX) and select the new .imgPTN file to swap over the E2B drive to the new partition image and then go and UEFI-boot it from the correct Intel Platform (e.g. a Haswell-based system in my case).
Note that UEFI booting from VBox will probably fail as it will refuse to boot from an incorrect CPU\chipset platform.
