In summary, the steps are:
use 'Disk Utility' to format 'Mac OS Extended (Journaled) without Maco OS 9 Disk Driver
sudo /usr/sbin/vsdbutil -a /Volumes/your_disk
select 'Open Apple Install Packages' in Pacifist app
select package and choose the your_disk to install the files
need Setup Assistant by copy from System/Library/CoreServices of your running mac
Also need BaseSystem.pkg and Essentials.pkg from /Library/Receipts of your running mac
sudo bless -verbose -folder "/Volumes/your_disk/System/Library/CoreServices" -bootinfo -bootefi
Performance is better with firewire instead of USB external disk or flash
