it appears that it requires devfsd to be running, i don't really care
but some people might like it if you could convert the name without
it...
i have made a couple changes to your patch, in fixdevfs() i changed
all instances of $KERNDEV to $1 so that i can simply call it with an
argument. i also redirect stderr to /dev/null for all the ls -l
variables in the scsi part, this way if devfsd is not there i won't
spew a dozen `No such file or directory' error messages. i also added
a falloff else to that section informing the user that convertion
failed.
i also moved the fixdevfs() function to ofpath and have it check and
convert the name its given. yabootconfig i have changed so it doesn't
need fixdevfs, only ckdevfs.
i have not tested the devfs changes since i don't run devfs (or even
2.4 for that matter). i have uploaded new versions of both ofpath and
yabootconfig, please test them on both devfs and *especially* devfs
systems using both normal and devfs names. you must run the new
ofpath with the new yabootconfig so you may need to move
/usr/sbin/ofpath out of the way temporarily while you test.
(yabootconfig resets PATH).

all of these are now SDx=`ls -l /dev/sdh$PARTNUM 2>/dev/null`

add: else

return 1

changed this to: echo "/dev/$DEV"
