I had a patch back in July that would allow this, but it did not work on the emulator (only in a coreboot build).  I'm trying to do something similar, although only if a disk is unbootable (no MBR or no bootable partition).

hi all:

Does anyone know that if seabiso support booting from other disk if boot
from one failed ?

For instance, the PC BIOS boot specification allows only one
disk to be bootable.  If boot from disk fails for some reason, the BIOS
won't retry booting from other disk.  It still can try to boot from
floppy or net, though.I want to know that if seabios support retry booting from other disk?

Thanks Eli.
