@DosFox odds are either would need a mac flashed gpu, but the efikaPPC would need it's openfirmware modding since it tries to run any vbios through a x86 emu which would be a major hangup trying to get macOS loading on it, while the pegasos is at least known to be able to load both classic macOS and OSX using Mac-on-Linux, but may also have the hangup of needing modification of it's open firmware to boot HFS drives at a minimum, as well as possibly also for the vbios

@DosFox but a pegasos 1 being based around a g3 should be able to do anything from macOS 8, to 10.4.11, and a pegasos 2, with a 1ghz g4 should theoretically be able to do at least OS9 possibly macOS 8 up to 10.5.8

@littlemisssynth Mac on Linux still doesn't count in my mind ;) But as far as I'm aware, Mac OS can load without a video adapter. The graphics driver should be able to initialise the card once you're in the desktop
