Hello

I now that this is not a high priority (IMHO), but I was wondering
something about the booter:

Wouldn't it be possible to allow the booter to boot MacBSD earlier in the
MacOS startup ? For example, we could do like with MkLinux, ie install an
INIT that boot the OS without waiting MacOS to finish.
Another solution wouldbe to write a bootstrap (like a 'fake' MacOS) that
would boot MacBSD at Mac startup ?

What do you think about this ?
