I had installed 10.6.3 on a Asus EeePC 1001HA recently.

Obviously it can be done with the Netbookinstaller/Netbook bootmaker packages.

BasiliskII and SheepShaver were installed on the fly as usual with OSX. SS´s performance on OS9 or 7.6 wasn´t even that bad, booting was rather fast.

Nevertheless I would not recommend Snow Leo for a low end netbook like the 1001HA.

Battery life was poor and the Eee´s fan was blowing permanently. WiFi was a pain most of the time with the built in WLAN.

For those hating XP, Mandriva might be an alternative host for the emulators, BII and SS perform less good than with Snow, but are quite useable still.

HAIKU might be worth a shot, but AFAIK there is only a BasiliskII build available.
