It depends. You can boot it on real hardware, you can boot in a virtual
machine emulator such as Qemu.
However, by default, Buildroot does not configure and build a kernel
for you, so you'll have to tell it to build a kernel for the hardware
you are targeting.
Without more precisions from you, it's hard to give a detailed set of
steps to follow.
Regards,
Thomas
