I think it's handled by the block layer but the translation in macio 
breaks it and converts it to -4 which causes an error so probably it 
should only be solved for macio. But I hope Alex can look at it and tell 
for sure or maybe solve it.

Ah, OK. They boot for me without a -M parameter with my changes (to the 
point saying "available for installation:" and then empty as I did not 
specify a hard disk image) too, but I was testing with -M mac99 as that 
was what I changed. I think they still "work" as before.
