Yes there should be one : you need it when booting using a third party (not built-in) PCI video card -- I used such a card as OF output-device on a 6400. A simple way to find the OF path to it is to look under/proc/device-tree, provided this is built into the kernel, and search for a device whose name begins with'ATY,' (ATI cards) : $ find /proc/device-tree -name 'ATY,*' If you have luck, the resulting path should look something like '/bandit/ATY,XCLAIM_LTPro', which you can use in the OF output-device.
