Hopefully this helps.


What is ADLO?

	See the following url:
	
	http://www.missl.cs.umd.edu/Projects/sebos/phase2.shtml	
	
	But basically its the glue which bonds LinuxBIOS to the PC
	BIOS of the Bochs project.
	
	It allows you to boot some OS's that depend on legacy BIOS 			services.

What bios services does ADLO provide and when would I need them.

	The full gory details are at:
