I forgot to mention that the cretor type of the "Finder" file has to be
changed to "MACS" to make it work.... Sorry.
This you can do with Apple Scripteditor while bootet from a Mac OS 9 CD:
tell application "Finder" to set creator type of (choose file with prompt
"Choose the miBoot-Finder file:") to "MACS"
