BIOS replacement Intel '486

[Richard Bonomo]

Hello!

I am working with a Real Time Devices PC-104
standard system equipped with a '486DX processor,
and.  In order to decrease boot time to our OS
(which is QNX/Neutrino) I would like to eliminate
the BIOS, replacing it with my own code which does
minimal initialization, and then loads the OS 
immediately (the OS is not dependent on BIOS
calls).  If anyone who has done this sort of thing
before is willing to spend a few minutes on the telephone 
with me, I'd be most appreciative.  Roy Minnich
of LANL appears willing, but he is out for a number
of days.

Thank you.

Richard B.

P.S. please reply direct.
