Should I start with your bug report? Yes, the text in the patched is file is rather terse, and it assumes that you do the right thing at the first try. The trick of running the installer a second time and chroot into the installed system and copy the kernel and initrd perhaps should be documented also (even if that trick not will be necessary as often, when the installation manual is corrected). I suggest that you describe it in the boot-new-xml file just below the paragraph that reads: If you use <command>BootX</command> to boot into the installed system, you should have copied the kernel and initrd from /boot to the MacOS partition before finishing the installer as described in <xref linkend="nobootloader"/>. Post your additions as patches to the bug.
