But without them I now must know what I'm doing...

Sorry, I have no idea what you want me to do here.

Without the cmos.layout file I now get:

[...]
make[1]: Entering directory 
`/OSELAS/bsp/OSELAS.BSP-JB-GeoTerm-trunk/temp/LinuxBIOSv2/targets/bcom/winnet100/winnet100/normal'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target 
`/OSELAS.BSP-JB-GeoTerm-trunk/LinuxBIOSv2/src/mainboard/bcom/winnet100/cmos.layout', 
needed by `option_table.h'.  Stop.

No idea why.
