Just in case anyone decides to experiment with the Intel port on Indiana here is some
useful information to be able to boot from Indiana Grub.

I found a strange and bazaar way to accomplish booting the Darwin Bootloader.

Adjust as required for your system:

rootnoverify (hd2,0)
makeactive
rootnoverify (hd2,0)
chainloader +1
boot

Yup it requires rootnoverify twice with makeactive in the middle.
I can't explain it but it works.

As always the end user must evaluate the use of software that is not made available 
by the Software Provider for the particular platform and thus a Licensed copy is not
available.  

I am using it to evaluate IpsGui for the Mac platform once I get a stable install.
