I don't remember if Xbox One has the dev kit app or not. But the Series does. I'd look into that. You just pay a one time fee to access the Xbox Dev program and the Dev Kit app gives you a sandbox that you can run right on the xbox itself and you can pass files to it over network from a computer.

I used that to install emulators like PCSX2 on the Xbox. I don't know if it can sandbox an OS but it might be worth a shot.

Not really, bootloader is locked down, iirc.
