Yeah, could go PearPC, but unlike CoLinux, it requires you to partition your HD .. ouch.

Ref: http://pearpc.sourceforge.net/installmacos.html
Please use a Darwin installation CD (instructions) for partitioning of the harddisk. You can try to use the partitioning program that comes with the Mac OS X installer (Disk Utility from the Installer menu) later on but this reportedly creates incomplete and unbootable installations.

If you care to read more indepth you'll see that this refer to partitioning the HD image file you've created...

My brother wrote this tutorial on installing OS X in PearPC -- I'd recommend reading the whole thread before starting, though!

in OSX 10.3
Disc 1 is the install disc and contains the OS itself

Disc 2 & 3 contain various other OS X programs (none of which is critical from memory, but at least fun to play around with)
Pretty sure Disc 2 has a lot of the language files on it as well

Disc 4 is the dev tools
you may need some of these, however if you sign up at apple as a developer, you have free access to all these tools anyway. It's just a click and a download away.
