hi,

i just had a funny idea...

what about haveing bios savior + DoC in a mb _and_
connecting the bios savior switch to an address pin...

that way it should be possible to have enough room
in the bios savior rom for doing everything. then
the DoC could be activated...

i think that booting should start with the internal
bios savior chip (with linuxbios). and then, at some
stage (all init of mem and copying of bios savior rom done)
the switch is "activated" (by a read of some address or sthg).

then a copy of the DoC is done ...

what do you think?
