[PATCH 5/5] Adapt grub-install parameters and finally perform GRUB installation. Make CHRP script bootable by OpenFirmware. Configure NVRAM defaults but do not boot automatically.

The NVRAM is (re)configured explicitly after the call to `grub-install` because `grub-install` uses and configures a wrong OF path (thanks to `ofpathname`). As it doesn't work the way `grub-install` does it currently, I tried to support the NVRAM defaults, which are to boot from the first found tbx

[PATCH 4/5] Create and configure the missing CHRP boot script.

Instead of the `ofpathname` tool (which is used in `grub-install` internally), the `ofpath` tool is used to get the OF path of the used OFFS partition, as this was the only tool that produced a usable/working output on the tested machines (PowerMac11,2 and 7,3). We can omit the creation of the CHRP

[PATCH 3/5] Handle HFS file systems (format, mount, unmount, permanent mount). Override $bootfs, $bootfstype, $bootdev and $state for NewWorld Power Macs.

[PATCH 1/5] Install hfsutils in-target for NewWorld Power Macs (adapted from d-i/yaboot-installer).

The installation of the hfsutils package is located in debian/postinst similar to d-i/yaboot-installer, from which the code was adapted. But d-i/grub-installer does all in-target installations from the `grub-installer` script itself. If this is important this can still be moved to `grub-installer`.

Hi, I think I start with the two trivial patches (which will follow this mail). As both are unrelated to each other and the "Make d-i/grub-installer work for NewWorld Power Macs" patches, they're separated, but as both are trivial patches they go with the same cover letter. I hope I got this righ
