what is wrong with using iboot as a crutch ?

[pepcfreak]

hi everyone i have a question

I like to install with iboot then retail osx dvd run updates and everything works without any third party stuff other then iboot . i have an OCD about installing a bootloader on my mac because for some reason in my mind it makes me feel like my install is dirty lol

im a freak i know you can laugh but i like the feeling i do not have any non native files running my OS if you understand so my question is as follows

? is it ok to keep using iboot to boot my computer

what are the negative effects if any

thanks for your input its just something thats been on my mind

if i could only boot iboot from usb stick i would be in heaven.

thanks
Mike

If you had true OCD then you would have the machine boot as intended.... on a Mac.

That said the only correct way from where ever i read is to use a boot loader.
