Hi all,
We have downloaded freebios 1.0 and we are trying to boot freebios on National Geode GX1 processor based system. We were successful enough to create a new target in freebios and boot freebios on the board with bios output on serial port . Also we tried to boot linux image minimal from freebios, but we are getting error saying error gunzip.
My board freebios log is as follows -------------------------------------- LinuxBIOS-1.0.0 Mon Dec 6 13:40:00 IST 2004 starting...

Welcome to start32, the open sourced starter. This space will eventually hold more diagnostic information.

-------------------------------------- Now My board has a DOC M-Sys 16MB, which consists of freedos in it's primary partition. Can we boot freedos from the freebios ?
