vxWorks PPC

Consoles with a PPC may not boot up because the bootfile in /etc/bootptab is VxWorks, and not vxWorksPPC. Change this. Also, change the bootfile in /vnmr/acq/bootptab to vxWorksPPC or a subsequent setacq will overwrite the bootfile name.

The PPC should have the bootfile (vxWorksPPC) in nvram, and on boot, the console requests the bootfile. The bootp daemon checks for this file, and uses it if it is there.
