I tried to install OSX on this pc:

 

Motherboard: some MSI OEM thingy

CPU: Pentium 4 s486 2.53Ghz northwood

memory: 512mb /768mb

vga: Geforce 4 / 6800le

HD: some old 12gb harddrive / some old 9gb harddrive (only thing I had spare)

 

I tried 2 different memory thingies because during the install with -v I read something with 256 blah unallocated space so I thought, what the hell lets change the memory to 512mb. didnt work. As you can see I also tried 2 different videocards, and 2 different harddisks, both a bit old though (they work perfectly fine, I just love the sound of jetengines in my computer).

 

so I tried to install with the Mac OS X 10.4.8 [JaS AMD-Intel-SSE2-SSE3 with PPF1 & PPF2] dvd, but that failed before it could even start. I reconnected my harddisk IDE cable to a different connector on the motherboard and after that I was able to start the installation. All goes well untill it comes to a reboot. It shows this message:

you need to restart your computer. hold down the power button for several seconds or press the restart button.

So I tried to reinstall several times with different options, without and with common hardware drivers, with or without videocard drivers but nothing worked (I think the nvidia drivers kill the installation even more because if I select those it doesnt even come to the reboot message :D

Then I did a reboot pressing F8 then type -s -v or something and this is what I got:
