System picker (from http://www.apple.com) lets you have multiple system
folders on one HD; it's happy dealing with the `blessing' problem.

I've had more than one blessed system folder on one HD - it's hellish
confusing.

The approved way of blessing a system folder that I've read about (from
Apple  - which doesn't mean all that much) is to open and close it; I
gather this works with System 6 and up.  I don't know about earlier
versions.  System 2 doesn't seem to care.
