Assuming you just want to flash the bios with a given rom image, go to
freebios2/util/flash_and_burn/ and do make there. The resulting
flash_rom utility might help.
For detailed information how to build LinuxBIOS itself for a given platform,
see http://www.openbios.org/LinuxBIOS-AMD64.pdf
The SIS6x0 is not yet supported by the LinuxBIOS v2 tree yet. Which
means you cannot replace your motherboard bios with LinuxBIOS on those
systems.
