Hi,

I had the unfortunate incident that MacBook HDD blew up while at
Debconf, and without a Mac OS X installation disk, I could not set up
refit, and I had to resort to PC compatibility mode.

I didn't know about efibootmgr, it might be what I was looking for,
but it doesn't seem to work with default lenny kernel that I have
installed right now. hmmm ....
