It's all work in progress. One day, and that day may never come, I
will have to ask you for that patch that obsoletes option roms.

Oh wait. You made that patch already, and the day will come and it's
going to be as soon as EFI kicks 16bit OPROMs out of existence. Any

Yes, the world became a lot more complicated when we started booting
anything but a hand patched single version of Linux on a system not
being headless. Unfortunately. That's one thing Apple got right. One
firmware, one OS. No messing around with the craziness out there.
