Sorry, did not quite get it. What is this elfimage, I have my own kernel image which I would like to boot from LinuxBIOS. Can I convert my kernel image to LinuxBIOS format, what would be procedure..
Could you Please elaborate..
In the current linuxbios, you can also boot directly without an elf image file. Look at the configuration freebios/util/config/pcchips787.config; this boots from CF on IDE device 2 = /dev/hdc1 (cat linux.bin.gz > /dev/hdc1) and mounts /dev/hda2 as root. linux.bin.gz is made in the build process by the linuxbios makefile, from vmlinux in your kernel source directory.
It is my understanding this direct mechanism will be removed, though, in linuxbios2, so that only elf images can be used in the future.
