Another issue is that I have currently no way to exit from miBoot. If I
fail to boot Linux, I exit to the caller, the disk is ejected, but the
machine doesn't try another disk to boot from. It may ne possible, it may
not, I'll have to disassemble more of MacOS ROM in order to figure this
out. I'd like to have a choice to boot MacOS, especially when miBoot is
on a hard disk partition.  (I can still change the PRAM value and reboot).
That would indeed be nice. FYI, Amiga-Lilo can boot AmigaOS, since we
disasembled the ca. 20 bytes of code in the boot block.
