For my "Debian on PowerBook", I'd like my / partition to be placed in
an LVM volume.  But it seems that yaboot is not able to load the
kernel from an LVM volume, so it seems I'll have to have a separate
/boot partition.

This /boot would most naturally use ext2/ext3, but a more appealing
solution would be to make /boot into an hfsplus partition so I can
put yaboot in it as well.

Yet, the yaboot documentation says:

   While it's possible to install <prgn>yaboot</prgn> on a mountable HFS
   <file>/boot</file> partition, that configuration is deprecated,
   discouraged and completely unsupported.

Does anyone know *why* this is discouraged?
