I put a command line interface on Linuxbios v1 a LOOOONG time ago and we 
are still using it.

...but at least at the time you weren't interested in the patches. ;-)

We use it to select a kernel image in the ROM, the kernel command line 
options and optionally select a initrd image from ROM.   ...we have lots 
of ROM. ;-)
