freebios was started before linuxbios. LinuxBIOS "took over" freebios, but didn't change the cvs name. V1 of freebios/linuxbios is the CVS module freebios. Freebios2 is LinuxBIOS version 2.
it's weirder than that. We built the first linuxbios using openbios as the starting point. Jeff Garzik found freebios, set up the sourceforge account with that name, and I made the mods to turn it into linuxbios. But the name stuck.
