Subject: [Slightly OT] x86 PROM project
Date: Sun, 4 Mar 2001 12:29:47 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20010304122947.A11041@frednet.dyndns.org> (raw)

What does everybody think of the idea of trying to write a RISC PROM-like
BIOS for the x86 architecture?

I've been tossing the idea around in my head for a while, and after I got
my first SGI I realized that something like this would be fairly useful.
Basically, I'm wondering if anybody is already doing something like this
(not linuxBIOS, though the code for that could be a useful base).  Thanks.
