well you could

dd if=/dev/zero of=outimage.rom bs=1k count=256
dd if=Linuxbios.rom of=outimage.rom bs=1k seek=192

This will give you a 256kb Image with LB located in the last 64k.

Also you can mess with option ROM_IMAGE_SIZE and option PAYLOAD_SIZE

I set ROM_IMAGE_SIZE to Chip size - payload size.

These control various parameters that are given to dd when it builds the 
imagefile.

the 'payload' statement in the config file determines what payload file 
is used.
