10.94.2. Contents of Powerpc-Utils
Installed programs:
nvsetenv, nvsetvol
The Powerpc-Utils package contains a number of utilities for Power Macintoshes and other similar machines. Most of these utilities are now obsolete, but nvsetenv is needed by ybin to install the bootloader on an hfs partition.
This package, originally pmac-utils, has issues with NewWorld Macintoshes. The following patch fixes these issues and generally updates the package:
patch -Np1 -i ../powerpc-utils_1.1.3-fixes-2.patch
Compile the needed programs:
EXTRACFLAGS="${BUILD32}" make nvsetenv nvsetvol
Install the package:
install -v -m755 nvsetenv nvsetvol /usr/sbin install -v -m644 nvsetenv.8 nvsetvol.8 /usr/share/man/man8
