Not in the traditional sense (with BIOS/GRUB.) While there might
be a Tizen OS image for notebook and netbook computers some day,
right now the only engineering efforts relate to handset devices.

The Tizen images you can download use uboot to load and the ARM
instruction set (not IA32 or AMD64 like yours.)

You can get pretty far in reaching your goal by just installing
the Tizen SDK (get the newest Magnolia 2.0 release) and running
the Qemu based emulator. You'll have a Tizen VM running neatly and
can experiment in a similar way as with VirtualBox.

To install the SDK go to the Tizen website where the SDK is a
featured article on the first page. Links lead you to installation
instructions. If you have problems ask again here or on IRC #tizen.

Regards,
Michael
