FYI, a `boot selector' per se will not allow you to switch seemlessly
between MacOS and NetBSD.  On all the models I've tried, booting MacOS
automatically resets some of the boot parameters (at least auto-boot?
and boot-device) so that it will boot MacOS the next time.

With some of the newer machines that don't actually have a MacOS ROM
at all, maybe that's been fixed...
