Hello David, Thanks for your quick response. Do you know where I can get the latest linuxbios source code(freebios2)? Call me crazy, but I couldn't seem able to find it through SourceForge. http://sourceforge.net/
thanks, Gin

We appreciate your interest in the project! As I recall, the patches were just something for some SiS chipset support in older LinuxBIOS versions (freebios1). Since then, LinuxBIOS has advanced to include more generic chipset support that does not require kernel patches.
The current LinuxBIOS (freebios2) will work without patches to your kernel.

Hello Ron, I don't' know if you are still working on this project since it's 2004
now. I just finished a presentation of Linuxbios at work. We are highly interested in getting linuxbios running on our systems(we design motherboards). I have a question about the way you do the kernel patch. If the patch is to initialize the uninitialized hardware
in order to run linux. Then why didn't we add it into the C code. Let it become part of linuxbios rom image? Furthermore, why do you have different patches for different linux kernel versions? Sorry if the questions are too basic. We just started trying to get it
built.
Thanks, Gin
