don't forget you can make your own!

I have 

targets/arima/hdama/Config.filo.lb

and I do this:

./buildtarget arima/hdama/Config.filo.lb


File is this:


# Sample config file for the Arima HDAMA

target hdama.filo
mainboard arima/hdama

romimage "normal"
	option USE_FALLBACK_IMAGE=0
	option ROM_IMAGE_SIZE=0x10000
	option LINUXBIOS_EXTRA_VERSION=".0Normal"
	payload /opt/filo/normal/filo.elf
end

romimage "fallback" 
	option USE_FALLBACK_IMAGE=1
	option ROM_IMAGE_SIZE=0x10000
	option LINUXBIOS_EXTRA_VERSION=".0Fallback"
	payload /opt/filo/fallback/filo.elf
end

buildrom ./linuxbios.rom ROM_SIZE "normal" "fallback"
