OS9 is PPC only, and I don't believe any functional PPC Mac emulators exist for the Amiga/MorphOS. ShapeShifter/Basilisk emulate 68K Macs, and iFusion is a broken, bug-riddled mess - it won't work.

If you dual boot OSX 10.3 or 10.4 on it, though, you can run OS9 stuff through Classic mode.

When I say OS9, I really mean OS-pre-X. Anything 680x0 based, running native or virtualized in the Mac Mini G4 (PPC). That's where interesting software is ;)

That's why I was thinking about Shapeshifter... It runs on RTG amigas. It doesn't hit the custom chips, it's supposedly an OS-friendly app if run in RTG mode. Or am I totally wrong here and Shapeshifter is hitting the chipset ?


If it's 68K emulation you want, then the MorphOS-native BasiliskII should do nicely.
