miboot documentation?

[Rick Thomas]

So far no takers.  By diligent goggling, I found a short HOWTO for
people who already have some sophistication about Mac technicalities (It
suggests using resedit to make configuration changes) in the PPCLinux
archives at

	http://lists.linuxppc.org/listarcs/linuxppc-user/200003/msg01388.html

I believe that these instructions are out of date, because I've also
found some suggestions that later versions of miBoot are easier to use
-- they read a text configuration file, rather than looking in resedit
places -- but I have no instructions for how to use the later version,
or the format of the configuration file.

The YDLv3.0 install disk includes miBoot alongside of BootX at the top
level, but does not give instructions.  I conclude from this that
somebody at YDL knows how to do it.  It would be nice if they could
afford the time to share their knowledge with us.

I really want to avoid the disk space it takes to put up a fully
functional MacOS partition just so I can use BootX.

Please help!


Thanks,

Rick
