Following this thread to its logical conclusion:

What would happen if I inadvertently attempted to boot an Intel based clone on a PowerPC system, or vice versa? Not sure how this would be possible. The incompatible clone would not show up in the Startup Disk panel, nor show up as an option on a reboot (depressing the option key).

However this happens (like to hear the possible scenarios), would OS X create an error message, show a spinning wheel, or crash, thereby corrupting the clone?
