You are correct.  I didn't read the original question carefully enough.

Please allow me to gracefully bow out now.

Note that VirtualBox virtualizes x86; it does not, per se, emulate it.

+1 for Qemu.  I have great hopes for it on other platforms also.

Till that comes to pass, I can tell you that I have loaded 10.6 Snow
Leopard successfully on top of Solaris/OpenIndiana, using VirtualBox and
it worked great.

Hardware was my Mac Mini.

VirtualPC 7.0 doesn't provide enough emulation for stuff like EFI and such.

Our faith is QEmu. Help QEmu project as you can, please.

Tough according to official VirtualPC ads, someone could use UNIX and OS/2
Oses over it, not just only Windows.

But anyway, has anyone really tried to install a post-Tiger, Intel-only Mac
OS version on VPC
