If you think about making a custom AppleTV take2 OS for PC I'm willing to rebuild the kernel set for embedded AppleTV style parts...
Mac OS X 10.4.11 install DVD I don't have anymore though so it will be hard to prelink the needed drivers into the kernel... (for mach_kernel.prelink)
But I suppose I could use a combo update for 10.4.11 for some of those...
Let me know...

project
 

I would love to work on a project like this, but I severely lack the technical to know how to do it, I mean I know how Mac OS X works, fairly decent knowledge with UNIX and OSx86 in general... So, if anyone does want to work on this I would be more than happy to help in any way that I can, need a good project for the summer anyway. Living in a village in the middle of nowhere is just boring!

OK I'll slightly mod the kernel build procedure then to enable building of an embedded style kernel for AppleTV OS take2 with custom dynamic linker...
You could afterwards prelink the needed parts (kexts and drivers) into the mach_kernel (hereby creating mach_kernel.prelink)
I'll also recompile the needed IR Remote Emulator for Tiger...
I'll send both to you after I'm done with each (still have a lot of work though... but I'll get to this tomorrow...)

Andy, you are amazing. Seriously, thankyou so much! you're very kind. Who else is onboard? any ultra-geek OSx86 types with time to spare?

AppleTV
 

OK, I have a full system image (2.3.1) and restored to a designated partition. All ready to go :)

lol to quote M$ fool Ballmer...

OK... I have got some free time on my hands and I'm starting to update the sources to create the proper kernel...
Post after completion...

Making great progress here...
Had to create a custom SDK to build dyld though...
Work continues...

W00T.. Thankyou for doing this!

OK... custom AppleTV dyld builds (i386 only...)
The kernel is building as we speak...
I think I'll have one very soon...
