macos on some oldworlds resets the nvram configuration, but if macos is not getting a chance to load that is strange.. > package to get ofpath. Shouldn't it be in a more generic package like > macutils (or something), instead of yaboot, since it is useful even on well ofpath comes from ybin, so even if ybin was its own package it wouldn't make any more sense then it does now since ybin is newworld only except for ofpath. it would be rather gross to have the ybin source in two different packages. yaboot is in the base system and priority standard so it should be installed on all debian systems anyway, and it is out of the way and unobtrusive (and very small) so its not a big deal to just install it. > systems that can't use yaboot.
