As you can see, MorphOS does even support computers designed to natively boot Mac OS 8.5
Yes but installing native boot Mac OS 9 is a pain, perhaps impossible, unless factory discs can be located. Retail Mac OS 9 can not boot on these computers.
Also Mac OS 9.2.2 is the final Mac OS 9. It is not being updated with the exception of after market softwares and modifications. Oh the other hand, MorphOS is actively updated.
So it picks up where Mac OS 9.2.2 left off in two ways.
I Support Quark Microkernel.
