Hi! I have iBook G4, I was installed on this openSuSe 11.1 ppc, and I whant to install wine 1.0.1. In the whine repositories no wine for ppc architecture. I downloaded source tar.bz2 file, configuring finished succesed, but compiling, when process with file dlls/mshtml.tbl, exiting with error: error: get_type_vt: unknown type: 0x2b.

on 1200 Mhz processor and 256 Mb RAM virtual box is not good idea...

Emulation is your only option. Though, I don't think Virtualbox does
CPU emulation. You'd need Qemu for that.

You are correct. I thought of that just after the OP posted the system
specs. Qemu will be painfully slow on that machine in emulation.

And you need Wine why? RDesktop is a native Linux app and works perfectly.

That was and mostly is why there is a Darwine project. However, due to
the popularity of Intel Macs, it is almost abandonware. The latest
version I could find for the PPC was 0.9.27 and that is very, very old.
