Agreed - it doesn't seem to matter particularly where the node lies, but 
I suppose it's a hint for the parent device. I'd compare the OpenBIOS 
device tree with the historical dev trees ("cd /" followed by 
"show-devs"), work out which Mac99 model is closest (hence being the 
model emulated by QEMU) and use that as a baseline.


HTH,

Mark.
