I don't mind having some HFS around. Quik doesn't need anything else around
(I forgot) and in theory could work on new world, but that was largely
abandoned as people kinda disliked quik for being flakey and a PITA to get
working just right. As a rule tho BootX works and isn't as much of a pain
to get going as quik on oldworld, and yaboot is good for new.
