Currently, BootX can only boot LinuxPPC. It's possible to adapt NetBSD to
be booted by BootX, but I don't think it's a really good idea. It's
probably better to install the OF patches from Apple. Those patches are
installed by Darwin/MacOS X "System Disk" application and, I think (Peter
Bierman can confirm), are open sourced (Apple licence).
