hi all,
I'd like to do some embedded systems and cluster research and would like to use linuxbios as the building block.
Has anybody tried to use linuxbios as the bios in a vm like bochs or vmware, so that one can "play" with linuxbios in software only?
Additionally I'd like to know, whether you prefere the LinuxBiosKernel (I mean that there is no "real" linux kernel in the bios) over the LinuxKernel in Bios approach. If you are using LinuxBiosKernel are you using a standard ATA flash disk, or are there better ways to boot the LinuxKernel.....
I'd also apprechiate a good and cheap hardware configuration, that works with linuxbios, especially:
* in todays boards: is the flash bios big enough for the LinuxBiosKernel * if not, which flash chips would you prefer? * what board would you choose for clustering testing purposes (it should have state of the art peripheral stuff and modern chipsets, etc).
thanks in advance -- Jakob
