From those strings it actually doesn't look like they are using
LinuxBIOS but rather chose the same name. But then again, changing a couple of strings is nothing too hard.
I guess Fastboot builds LinuxBIOS Tables and ELF Boot Notes in RAM to boot ELF images (they instructs to use mkelfimage to boot linux). So the "LinuxBIOS" strings might be ones to go to some of these tables?
OTOH, I've found those strings that are very similar to those found in FILO...
ts1@felixx:/tmp/CDRom$ strings BIOS_D.BIN | grep "Not a" Not a bootable ELF image Not a Linux kernel image.
ts1@felixx:~/src/ts1/filo$ grep -r "Not a" . ./i386/linux_load.c: debug("Not a Linux kernel image\n"); ./main/elfload.c: debug("Not a bootable ELF image\n");
