There is also another alternative.  The experimental RAMDISK
kernel-based installation--for that, you'll need enough space
to store the booter and the kernel on the MacOS partition.

This is probably not as well-documented as the installer method,
but it may be more comfortable if you're comfortable with other
Unix-like installs.

Does anyone know what the current status of this installation
method is?
