How to proceed? Well, to my knowledge, qemu doesn't yet have that ability. It doesn't currently (that I know of) have full-machine emulation capability for PowerPC, not to mention a compabile OpenFirmware implementation (and compatible OF drivers). I don't know if or when Fabrice intends to do something like that with qemu, and I don't believe the SheepShaver port is anywhere near far enough along (currently only OldWorld compatible, requires a ROM image, and last time I tried to build it, still slightly broken). If you have a PowerPC system, you can run MacOS X inside the Mac-on-Linux virtualization environment, which I've done on multiple occasions on my PowerBook Pismo, but that's about it. Also, Apple's licenses are written such that running their OS on non-Apple hardware is a direct license violation. Just FYI. -- Derrik Pates dpates@dsdk12.net
