Probably because Moana expects other hardware.

The main difference between imacs and mac mini's is the videocard. The Imac's use Nvidia chips, the mini's Ati chips.
No way to get Moana running on an Imac unless someone, somehow gets his hands on the Nivdia sourcecodes and port it to OS4/Openfirmware/Moana for PPC.

I'm not considering a G3 Apple since it lacks AltiVec and I don't know if Moana uses it in some way. Let's keep things simple  :-D

BTW an Ati Rage is not an Ati RADEON. The driver included into Moana won't support anything but that type of graphics chip.
