OK, really trying baby steps here. Accepting that OFW doesn't implement 
or allow access to a PC-style BIOS, so can't be used to load any OS that 
makes BIOS calls (even if only during initialisation), how can I use it 
to examine the partition table, boot sectors, and possibly filesystems 
on an IDE disc?

Specifically, on one of my development systems I can see a node 
/pci/pci-ide@1f,1/ide@0/disk@0, but what comes next?
