I suppose I should also note that the process I used works in a pure NetBSD environment; building the HFS image on a NetBSD netboot server let me skip every step that would normally happen on MacOS. My wishlist for the script is to get it to read its partition number and apply it to the boot command as "n" and "n+1". That and be able to set the screen resolution to work around OF3 getting confused by the KVM switch it's probing....
