I am not clear yet - I think installboot does everything exactly as
disklabel/newfs used to do before (at least I can't spot a difference).
We have three possible errors (in historical order)
- the conversion to single bootblock introduced a bug for disks with
the first few sectors zeroed
- the moving of the bootstrap installation into installboot introduced
the error
- the firmware/boot procedure used by simh has a bug
