[Devil-Linux-discuss] LinuxBIOS and Security Boots -- Futuristict DL ??

[John v. V. <joh...@ya...>]

Hello all, i am back from my 2 month USA grand tourismo ***

Devil-Linux is definately the best release of any operating system, I have had
time to think about it.

While I was a way there were some significant advances in the LinuxBIOS area
and I found this non-official FAQ fyi.

What caught my attention was SeBOS, a way of securing the box by attaching it
to a fingerprint reader.

But other stuff caught my attention as well, a future DL may shrink right into
the system bios -- is that scary or what ?? ;)

Secure LinuxBIOS

Hardware Supplier and LinuxBIOS supporter ( reasonable prices )
http://www.cwlinux.com

PC Emulator that is the test package ( and creator ) of LinuxBIOS
BOCHS-BIOS (http://bochs.sourceforge.net/)

Something exciting, a linux bios for the VGA cards ( about to be produced )
BOCHS' video BIOS (http://www.nongnu.org/vgabios/)

Sadly, a good flash burner costs about 1000 $$$ US

Also, my "perversion" of DL called eLSD is actually being downloaded frequently

Best to all of you in the New Year, and any perl hints I can give .. ;)

*** On 9/11 I was active a the WTC and I took about 6 rolls of film.  In Feb
2001 I was preparing an exhibit near Albany, NY in honor of Upstate
firefighters who were at the scene.  Using Photoshop to manipulate the pictures
caused me to have a post truamatic stress disorder episode that lasted until
March.  I retained a panic disorder and decided to see if a long trip would
help -- it actually cured the panic disorder -- 23K miles in 2 months.

**** I am going to review all my work with a more focused brain now, so
everybody should hold off, but if you are curious, go ahead and email me w/ problems.
