As far as we've been able to tell, the UltraSPARC PROM doesn't use the
.slicemap file. When you do "boot cdrom" on an UltraSPARC it just
tries "boot cdrom:f" by default. Or at least, as far as the people
who tested the images that I built have found anyway, because my test
images did not have a .slicemap file...
