I have committed Ollie's Epia code to the new subversion tree: svn co svn://openbios.org/LinuxBIOSv2
It's getting farther than it was before, detecting IDE drives in native pci mode, and we've even seen a bproc node come up once using it.
For all I know, it might work fine (albeit pretty slow at points), but I can't do further testing of it until some flash parts come in the mail because the ones I've been testing it with have been flashed a few too many times.
