Neither. This change catches these kernels (INSTALL and GENERIC_MD) up=20
with the ofwboot.xcf changes. They also mean that these kernels will have=
=20
all the same space issues (or lack for a while) that the normal kernels=20
have.

load-base has not needed changing for a while; it's been ok (even with the=
=20
MacOS X default of 600000) ever since we set ofwboot.xcf to load somewhere=
=20
else.

real-base still needs changing AFAIK, but that's more a measure of how the=
=20
old firmware does things compared with where our kernels load by default.

These changes will make it so that you don't need the 1.6 ofwboot.xcf to=20
boot the install kernels. :-)

Take care,

Bill
