As I understand it, oldworlds will read hfs partitions and try to boot files from it.
The only problem I can think of would be the executable format of the boot image, which is probably elf now, and would need to be another format for oldworlds. How hard would it be to just compile yaboot in the oldworld compatible executable format? Since it has been proposed to make ybin compatible with oldworlds, why not take it to the last step? I know there are technicalities, so let's talk about them. Mike
