There should be no reason to prevent this, and I am working in
the direction of making this work easily.

I would like to eventually get to the point where NetBSD
can be selected just like apple's usual boot selection methods.

I have further off ideas of making NetBSD be able to be 
used from a `drop in' install just like any other MacOS
application.
