This should be added to the FAQ... 

BootX is not meant to _replace_ quik. Since OF is not working well enough
on a lot of Macs, BootX may be your only choice, but if quik works for
you and you like it, then use it, it's hopefully still working. OF
booting is better from a "theorical" point of view ;-)
