Note that if you have more than 16 partitions on a disk, then
you have to use the '/dev/hdeN' syntax (and not just /dev/hde).
(This is one thing that should be fixed).
Moreover, make sure you mark the boot partition with '-boot'. If this
is not done, MacOS might unmount partitions until it finds the bootable
one...
In particular. Do NOT use the '/dev/hde' syntax if MOL is configured
to load a ROM from the linux side - MOL won't know which volume to boot
from (MOL places the boot volume first in the volume list).
Cheers,
