Has anyone been successful booting OpenBSD on the 1st Generation Apple TV?

I'm not talking about the cigarette packet devices sold today. Rather, the
original Apple TV was an Intel Pentium M device with 256 MB RAM and internal
IDE HDD. It was hobbled with a quirky EFI firmware that would only boot Apple's
boot.efi bootloader. Years ago, some clever Linux folks discovered the Apple
EFI loader would launch any Mach-O binary, so found a way to package a Linux
kernel + initrd as such so that it would boot instead of the Darwin kernel.

Could a similar method be employed to boot OpenBSD or chain-load the OpenBSD
EFI loader?
