I suspect that the partition type field in the MBR is set to 165 and that his 
disk partitioning tool labels that as FreeBSD/386.  Someone would have to take 
a disk formatted by one of these TV's and see if it really has a UFS 
filesystem.  If it does, you could look at the boot sectors in the BSD label 
to see if they match /boot/boot.
