No more BIOS Saver... Hummm. This I may be able to help with. What packages do we want/need? PLCC32 and DIP32? Does that cover 95% of motherboards?
I'd say more than half of currently manufactured motherboards are PLCC32.
Different size chips. I have a VIA epia-mII that i have been trying to get linuxbios installed on. I am using both the sst 39sf020 (256k) and the sst 39sf040 (512k). The board see's both and is able to boot from both. I did find out that the "stock" bios image will only boot off the 256, when i flash the stock 256k image onto the 512k chip it will not boot. No clue as to why. This could be a function of my programmer, not sure.
Thanks for the feedback; good to know I'm not the only one. Jeff
