Hello! I just finished reading the article on LinuxBoot in the March issue of Linux Journal. And I am working on the one on a customized embedded Linux build, which is in the same issue. (There wasn't a February issue, or even ones for December last year or a January this year.)
It does make a good point on the subject of how to properly boot Linux without a proprietary or even closed source BIOS used. And I remember reading Eric's article from the beginning of the Century and it did not go into enough detail.
Ron and company that was a well written article.
To be honest when I joined the original list for LinuxBIOS I had a plan to apply that to running a system for the purposes of running an emulator called Hercules, who rather effectively emulates the IBM mainframe. Sadly it was never realized.
I believe given what was described in the article that I am a lot closer. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8@gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again."
