MacOnLinux is pretty cool. I compiled it a bit ago (back in December) - the source code has been updated since, but I haven't had the time to get the new source and play with it. Compiling it was a bit problematic. It will, but I had to patch some stuff.

Running OS X in it on OS X is quite buggy, though. It tends to kernel panic and crash often. Well, with the code I've compiled with. As I said, it was updated recently, so perhaps some of these issues have been fixed.

Feel free to ask me off list if you want any pointers on it, though perhaps I should grab the newest source and play with it before I try answering.

A while back, I went through all the trouble of setting up Linux on a spare machine for the explicit purpose of running several copies of OS X under MacOnLinux. Wasn't worth my time, OS X running under MacOnLinux is not stable, so it's basically useless. Doesn't look like a new release has been cut since then, either...
