Hi,
recently, the batteries in my two old NetBSD boxes died :-((
I've read the NVRAM-FAQ, but there is still one question remaining:
is it possible to restore the NVRAM dynamically from within a running
NetBSD system, such as patching the data into the memory locations of
the NVRAM and re-initializing the NetBSD kernel afterwards with the
correct data (or patching the running kernel) ?.
Thanks
Michael
