On Debian, the blessed folder is "powermac" within "install"
("/install/powermac") and contains yaboot, etc. "ofboot.b" is marked as
system. I don't know where ybin is, probably within the invisible apple
boot partition.
On Partimage, the blessed folder is "boot" in the root ("/boot"), where
"yaboot" is marked system.
On Suse 7.0, the blessed folder is "suseboot" in the root ("/suseboot"),
where "yaboot" is marked system. It also contains a fake "finder" and a
"system".

Thanks, I'm going to download a testing image as soon as it's available.
