I think we should make it flexible and support both. If you just want the
B and the S, you say so when you configure/compile it (maybe a selection
that hides all other options when selected). If you want more, you say so.
I think this should be possible. People that want the minimalistic thing
work on that part, and people who wants more features, like I and O can
work on those features. Together we make the fantastic thing called
OpenBIOS! :)
