Hello!

I know that Power Macintosh machines are PowerPC, and Linux runs on
them.

Q: Is there any program to run Mac OS under PowerPC Linux? Something
like VMware under x86, but for Mac OS 9 or Mac OS X?

Thanks!

but beware:

Linux runs on PowerPC machines? Yes, so some people claim...

or

Linux runs on PowerPC machines? Yes, some of it does...
