Details:

Enable embedding in UFS2 filesystems.

Change start sector from 1 to 2 to avoid overwriting the partition map in
sector 1.

Fix incorrect check as to whether the partition is large enough to contain the
superblock; the check previously was comparing a partition size in blocks
against a superblock location in bytes. This caused installation to fail on
very small filesystems.
