' Screenshots have been released showing that someone has managed to install and run Mac OS X on their Xbox console '

It's not running natively of course, they first softmodded their xbox to get Xebian Linux on the Xbox. Once Xebian is installed they compile PearPC which is an architecture-independent PowerPC platform emulator capable of running most PowerPC operating systems (see http://pearpc.sourceforge.net for more info). They then installed Mac OS X from a darwin image file and using some specific drivers and configuration files. Detailed instructions on how to do all this is available on their site.
