@Geekman CHRP has allowed system 6.0.8 to run on PowerPC hardware.
The problem is it's still running on a Mac, and WiiMac only targets Mac OS X

@DosFox Hey look! Back in 2022, someone used a similar trick to run 9.2.2 on the Wii. https://hackaday.com/2022/11/24/its-macos-on-an-unmodified-wii/

@DosFox My original point was more that CHRP was designed for non-Apple PPC machines (though there were not many of those). I'm not sure if anyone has managed to track down an IBM CHRP machine since Steve unearthed the CHRP install CDs to make that magical connection. But it's a moot point since it's doubtful the enabler will work as well with newer versions of Mac OS (compared with how startlingly well it has worked with the older ones). But who knows?
