Uh, minor point here.  I did the original design and implementation of 
the mac68k version of sysinst using the i386 as a template. Colin was 
kind enough to review the code and fix some of the obscure bugs.  I also 
have updates for the INSTALL documentation covering how to use it.  I'm 
eager to get my Blue&White G3 up and running NetBSD too, and if I can get 
there I'd me more than willing to work on the sysinst/macppc 
implementation.  I think by now I have at least a hacker's level 
knowledge of the Partition Map.  ;-)
