I haven't. Neither in Mac-on-Linux/Mac-on-Mac nor in PearPC. As of today, QEMU is the only emulator that Cheetah runs in. The attached image shows what I got trying to run Cheetah in MOL.

Thanks for reply, I got the same result in MOM. Someone on the Internet wrote that it successfully launched the Cheetah and in my opinion, as I remember in the specifications of the virtual machine, it is indicated that it can run 10.0 inclusively.
Has anyone tested any of this software on Mac OS X DP2? I'm installing it on a Beige G3 for fun.
I figure if anything runs on it at all it would be something that works on Cheetah.

I'd say try software for Rhapsody - www.rhapsodyos.org - as DP2 is much closer to Rhapsody than it is to Cheetah or even Public Beta.
Here is a question - where do I find QEMU for PowerPC - say, I want to emulate OS X 10.0 on my Titanium 1ghz ? Is there a QEMU for PowerPC ?
I agree, but if you had the source code, you can make them productive just as I intend to try with the help of 10 others make OS 9 better.
turns out 10.0.4 will boot on a First generation iMac G4 
just tried it for giggles and much to my surprised it booted all the way up!
everything apart from sound seems to be working in my brief testing

So I didn't hallucinate that YouTube video which showed Cheetah on oneturns out 10.0.4 will boot on a First generation iMac G4
I did try OS X Server 1.2v3 when I first got it, as the general system is pretty compatible I know Pangea and the GeForce2 MX work with OS X Server 1.2v3
so I was hoping I could get it to boot, and while it does boot to single user mode (after faking the model identifier in OpenFirmware of course)
it does not sadly boot all the way up, it seems to kernel Panic when it goes to initialise sound but im not 100% sure, the panic message is "mpic_register_int interrupt 136 not found" which happens just as it starts talking about sound "PPCAwacs" etc
I think if we could solve this panic issue, then it would boot up all the way to a desktop
Of all the things for a ServerOS to choke on: Sound. 😶
Hey all!
I'm trying to do some archival stuff with old versions of Mac OS X, and I am curious if anyone knows where the default folder and media icons are stored on Cheetah. I found them in the CoreTypes.bundle in later versions, but I've looked all over (even in the hidden files) and I can't seem to find a bundle that has them. Anyone know?
