testbios: other chips?

[Joshua Wise]

I've seen various success stories of testbios being used to execute VGA BIOSes 
and get VGA cards running. This led me to ask the question of whether it 
would be feasible to get BIOSes from other option cards, such as my "00:13.0 
Unknown mass storage controller: Triones Technologies, Inc. 
HPT366/368/370/370A/372 (rev 04)" to execute and initialize.

Thanks,
joshua

That is currently not being considered.  That is territory for ADLO.
And full pcbios compatibility.

My experience has been that the Linux drivers are good enough that
except for video this is not an issue.
