I have bumped into this post and found it pretty fascinating: how to get Tiger onto a pre-historic PowerMac. Wonder if the author is here.

Is this something that you're considering attempting? I ask in case you have one such machine and it's not listed in your signature.

Oh no, I am busy enough trying to fix 10A190 and building software on it

It’s just awesome that someone managed to install 10.4 on a machine that is not supposed to run OS X at all.

Fair enough.

Agreed. I always enjoy seeing hardware pushed to the limit or beyond its design remit.

When something is not supposed to work, someone is going to try to make it work.
