changing blessed directory

I was trying to boot SLES and openSUSE on the same G5.  I changed DEFAULT_BOOTFOLDER in /sbin/lilo (not sure if there is a cleaner way to do this? Is there an equivalent of elilo's "vendor-directory" configuration keyword?).   

Anyhow,  this somehow resulted in the new bootfolder becoming blessed when I ran lilo.   I can still boot both os' using explicit path to yaboot but I was trying to rebless the old "suseboot" directory (sles) using the 13.1 system.

hattrib -b should do it but it requires the volume be mounted using hfsutils/hmount and whenever I do this it's mounted "locked" and hattrib complains "read-only file system".   I can mount read-write using "mount -t hfs" but then hattrib complains "No volume is current; use `hmount' or `hvol'".

I can't see an hfsutils option to remount read-write,  I'm probably missing something obvious.  Feel free to clue me in.  Thanks!
