Well, it's probably a bit more work than that.  While I don't know enough
(actually nearly nothing) about Apple's OpenFirmware implementation, I assume
that the partitioning scheme of the Macs is different from the one on PCs
(which was adopted by PReP and PPCP).  So it's quite likely that the
disk label handling code needs some work, too.

Just a minor nit.
