Just tried an install with current 16.04 network media, using standard server package selections, and it looks like opal-prd isn't installed by default:
[jk@fstn ~]$ dpkg -l opal-prd
dpkg-query: no packages found matching opal-prd
This is required for RAS-type functions on OpenPOWER machines; and has a similar role to something like acpid, on x86.
I'm not sure whether filing this against the skiboot package is best, or whether this should be moved to something installer-related. Happy to shift if necessary.
