Yes... you have to use the --osx switch in order to boot MacOS X.

Well, what BootX refers to is the MacOS X boot loader (not Ben's 
Linux boot loader). You have either a broken MOL installation
or (more probably) a too old version. I recommend you install
the latest MOL version for OSX. The source is available
through rsync:

	rsync -rzv mol.penguinppc.org::mol mol-rsync
	cd mol-rsync
	./autogen.sh ; ./configure
	make libimport
	make
	make install
