As many things as you like, all I meant is we don't need to rebuild the
CDs just to have hfsutils bless something that's not even used in the m68k
CD. 
As I understand it, PPC boots by creating a fake system folder containing
a fake system file that gets executed by the MacOS ROM but really is the
Linux bootstrap. Such a thing was never implemented for m68k as we need a 
fully initialized MacOS there in order to gather the necessary system
information to pass to the booter.
