But apt-get is also not available from that shell prompt and 

find / -name apt-get -print

does not find anything.

Similarly for sudo. (One is already "root" in this CD-boot context so I doubt 
sudo is ever required.)

Notably

find / -name 'lvr*' -print

finds the relevant /sbin/lvr* lvm programs just fine. But fsadm is missing.

Sorry about the first email...

do a sudo apt-get install fsadm

Selecting to boot the CD for "rescue-powerpc", selecting to not mount a root 
file system from the PowerMac, selecting to get to the shell, and typing

find / -name fsadm -print

does not find a fsadm anywhere.

Naturally enough typing "fsadm -h" at the command prompt results in the message

/bin/sh: fsadm: not found

I wanted to release about 45G Bytes of free space from a root file system that

lubuntu-14.04-alternate-powerpc.iso to do lvreduce --resizefs. Unfortunately 
the attempted use of lvreduce reports that it could not find fsadm (and fsadm 
is not in the live file system's /sbin/ with the lv* tools).

Part of the purpose for "rescue-powerpc" (and the like) should be to do 
operations that can not be done with a live (root) filesystem.  Looks like this 
specific kind of example of that has been missed.

I have not checked if other processor families have similar issues for their 
"alternate" CDs or if the issue is specific to lubuntu vs. existing in other 
ubuntu variants. Nor have I checked other types of .iso's for powerpc.
