+/dev/bios is obsolete and no longer under development. Please adapt all
+changes to the "flashrom" utility of LinuxBIOS. This utility can be found
+at LinuxBIOSv2/utils/flashrom in the LinuxBIOS v2 repository. LinuxBIOS
+is available at http://www.linuxbios.org/
+
+I'm also looking for volunteers to port all features available in /dev/bios
+to flashrom so /dev/bios can be dropped from the OpenBIOS tree. These features
+include
+
+- block information about flash chips
+- block wise writing of flash chips
+- lots of supported flash chips and vendors.

+If you have questions, contact Stefan Reinauer
