QEMU won't run

[Jamchuck]

So I was trying to run Mac Os X in a virtual machine, so I installed QEMU and I got this error  "qemu-system-ppc: could not load PowerPC bios 'openbios-ppc'" does anyone know how to fix it?

Can you start by letting us know your hardware config/OS?

 

If you install the virt-manager package (assuming Linux) this usually installs the necessary QEMU package(s) automatically. Unless you're using another interface? LTT has a couple hackitosh videos outlining parts of the process. I believe they posted a guide to the forum as well.

Hardware config won't relaly matter, what we need most is the OS

as the error suggests you don't have the powerpc open bios package installed. how you install it depends on the distribution, but you haven't given us any information on what you're running.

you are not running x86_64 qemu first of all, you should tell us what packages you have installed
