Package: mol (0.9.72.1~dfsg-2)

The Mac-on-Linux emulator

Mac-on-Linux is a virtual machine capable of running GNU/Linux, Mac OS and Mac OS X on most Debian/PowerPC machines. In contrast to an emulator, Mac-on-Linux runs natively on the processor, i.e. it is very fast.

This package contains the emulator itself. In order to actually use it, you need kernel modules from an mol-modules package built against your kernel version (if you can't find pre-packaged ones, build your own from the mol-modules-source package). Also, you will need a mol-drivers package that supports the operating system you wish to run on the virtual machine. At the time of this writing, there are driver packages for Linux, Mac OS 9 and earlier, and Mac OS X.
