Couple of questions...

[Hendricks David W.]

Hmm, I think Ron might have gotten LinuxBIOS to work on a Tyan Thunder K7 
(Dual Athlon/Palomino, AMD 760MP chipset). The Tyan board used a Viper 
Plus southbridge instead of an Opus, but the northbridge appears to be the 
same. I'm not sure what the exact status is on that chipset, however.
