I'm not sure where is the problem. Maybe in ofpath, maybe in kernel and 
maybe in OpenFirmware. But when a user of B&W G3 Power Macintosh tries 
to install yaboot he get following issue:

Bootstrap partition is /dev/sda2
Install by `ybin' -> ofpath finds and set boot device to `/disk at 0:2', 
what makes system unbootable
Install by `ybin -o hd:2' -> boot device is set to `hd:2', what makes 
system bootable.

I don't know how to find, if ofpath finds `/disk at 0:2' as the right boot 
device. Any clues? Or any clue how to dig more?
