Works on my XTR. Remember, you should always be typing "su -" when
becoming root from your login as admin, to ensure root's search paths
etc get set properly.  /usr/sbin isn't in admin's search path by
default; that's why you can't find it by just typing "cmos"...

You need root privs to run this utility, as you can read _and_ write
information (euid=0 to read, uid=0 to write) from/to ROM with this tool.
Potentially dangerous! :)
