There is very little duplicated here. The ADLO in coreboot relies on building the BOCHS bios from source with dev86, but the payloads/adlo

please also note we have a gsoc student working on legacy bios integration again this summer. maybe we should stop the plenty discussion here and leave things as they are until that project is done?
It's not soon enough for me. It works now in QEMU, even though there is a lot to be improved. I'd like to put it into buildrom so that it is easy to hack on.
Does legacybios from Kevin O'Connor boot Vista?
It probably does in QEMU, but not the 64-bit version. The last I heard that was the status of the Bochs BIOS.
Thanks, Myles
