Hmm -- haven't tried the booter in System 6, but if you're not 32-bit clean,
you may be SOL. See what it does. I don't know if the booter even works in
6.x.

On my System 7.1 IIci, I have an alias to the booter on the MacPartition
in the Startup Items folder of the main MacOS partition. A/UX really doesn't
care which partition is booting it. The reason I have the MacPartition and
my main MacOS partition separated is actually for upgrades which may merrily
destroy your main MacOS partition if you don't give them the MacPartition to
work on. The 3.1 upgrade is one such (notorious) example.
