Hi.
VMware and bochs provide the capabilities to simply change their system BIOS.
In VMware and Bochs you can set a filename for the BIOS that the Emulator/Virtual Machines shall use.
More about: "VMware/Bochs<-->BIOS development/Option ROM development" can be found here:
http://etherboot.org/wiki/vmwarebios
There are also two links inside the article which refer to the VMware forums.
You should visit the links too.
