---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Kernels later than 1.3.12-mm1 no longer provide symlinks in
/proc/device-tree. Yaboot's ofpath binary had a check for
BootX that would error in such a case, this update
eliminates that check so ofpath continues to work on FC4
kernel updates.
Impact is minimal as ofpath is not required to be run after
the initial install.

* Thu Aug 4 2005 Paul Nasrat lt;pnasrat@redhat.comgt; - 1.3.12-10
- Fix ofpath for 2.6.12-mm1 and later
