Yaboot ofpath is currently the only
device-node-to-OF-path-translation-tool that worked "correctly" for
the tested G5 Power Macs.

E.g. when devalias in OF says it's "/ht/pci at 9/k2-sata-root/k2-sata at 0/disk at 0".

We get for /dev/sda2:

* grub-ofpathname returned
"/ht at 0,f2000000/pci at 9/k2-sata-root at c/disk at 0:b" which didn't work

while

* ofpath returned "/ht at 0,f2000000/pci at 9/k2-sata-root at c/@0/@0:2" which worked
