I use ppcinstall for months and it works fine.
PPCINSTALL is on phase5 archives: I've found it on my first flashrom update
archive.

loadseg calls? so there are Power-up apps called when you launch YAM?

Are you using akdatatypes? In that case, your problems come from the call of
the datatypes by MUI... For my part I use warpdatatypes and each time I
desactivate warp-os I encounter problem with some 68K apps such as
Stricq... etc..
So I guess it could be that.
