It was Darwin 6.0.2, just downloaded from this web site 
http://www.opensource.apple.com/projects/darwin/6.0/release.html

According to the web site it "corresponds with Mac OSX 10.2".. I will 
try an older version like the "10.1" correspondent.

I tried OSX 10.0 as well, and that definitely does not work now. It 
kernel panics about an unknown platform "AAPL, MOL".

It's possible to run OSX 10.0 on older versions of MOL? That would be 
very useful, since my OSX 10.1 CD refuses to install itself without an 
OSX 10.0 installation already present on my machine, and I can't get my 
OSX 10.0 to install in the first place..!

Ross..
