Re: [LinuxBIOS] VGABIOS on a PPC

[Greg Watson]

Hi Denis,

I don't think anyone has tried this yet, but in theory it should  
work. The main issue is to port the x86 emulator so that it will work  
on the PPC (the main issue is memory mapped vs. i/o instructions from  
memory). I'd be very interested to hear if anyone had any success.

Cheers,

Greg
