Ok, here's the story from the horses mouth.

You need to use HFS to boot, no other method is guaranteed to work.
You can call it a kludge if you want to, but while you up there on
the soapbox, you might want to rethink your statement and consider how
Linux boots on X86.

Case in point: loadlin and syslinux.  Similar to BootX (app) and this new
booter (BootY?) respectively.

Linux as a OS, has more kludge factor than anything else on the planet
and it works, people use it, life goes on.

My thoughts exactly.
