So I was finally able to download the torrent and give osx86 a go on a friends computer.

 

I followed the tutorial and booted into osx only to get to the grey apple and then a kernal panic "you must restart your computer....."

 

His computer was an Athlon XP 2800+, with an ASUS motherboard.

No go with this processor.... I'm guessing.

 

Is it possible?

If so, which road do I go down?

Athlon XP has only SSE, it don't work natively or with VMware. You need a P4 or Athlon64 with SSE2 & SSE3 for this (or any other CPU with min. SSE2).

You can boot OSX as virtual PC but it will be much slower than a native installation.

in PearPC (the PPC version): http://pearpc.sourceforge.net/

in QEMU (the x86 version): http://forum.osx86project.org/index.php?showtopic=5055
