I'm missing the "all option ROMs except VGA" choice for machines with a native video driver/init and some plugged-in SCSI cards.
With native init, with the native device becoming VGA Primary, the vga rom doesn't get run, unless the native driver itself call the relevant functions, and specifies CONFIG_PCI_ROM_RUN in its Config.lb.
Maybe, in V3, a way to specify which roms to run, partly during buildtime, partly through rtc cmos, could be looked into.
Agreed. How about an additional CONFIG_NONVGA_ROM_RUN?
This is a good start. I assume you have tested it with abuild. Please try to get another ack from Ron or Luc as well.

It looks very good from an initial glance, but i will take a more in depth look first before ack :)
