Details:

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/address@hidden/k2-sata-root/address@hidden/address@hidden".

We get for /dev/sda2:

* grub-ofpathname returned
"/address@hidden,f2000000/address@hidden/address@hidden/address@hidden:b" which 
didn't work

while

* ofpath returned 
"/address@hidden,f2000000/address@hidden/address@hidden/@0/@0:2" which worked
