Greetings,
I don't know how Adam feels about it, but if I were Phoenix, AMI, et. al. I'd be worried now, and very interested in getting involved in LinuxBIOS.
G'day, sjames

What size does all this take up in flash?
LinuxBIOS + BOCHS BIOS + Video BIOS =?
BOCHS BIOS standard size is 64kb. If you gzip it it goes down to 20kb.
We are currently using binary only video bios. The video bios as it is with SIS630 is 48kb. For paranoia sake we are using full 64kb. gzipped 64kb bios is at 34kb.
Will this help you get down size of your project?
I just wanted to be sure it would all fit into <4Mb of flash. We design several x86 boards a year and most need to boot Win32.
Should Phoenix, AMI and General be worried?
