I tried to install Mac OS X 10.4 under PearPC, but the emulated computer will never even boot into the Mac OS X Install DVD successfully (always a prohibitory sign). After some attempts to install Mac OS X 10.4 under PearPC, which all only failed with a prohibitory sign before the Installer loads, I set prom_env_machargs to "-v", and this was the output of the emulated kernel on the next boot:

Is there any way to get past the infinite loop of "Still waiting for root device"?
