[Etherboot-developers] Q: LinuxBIOS support?

[<ebi...@ln...>]

Right now with linuxBIOS we are actively working out what is
a good bootloader solutions.  With at least 512KB of ROM
we can use the linux kernel and that works well.

On systems with smaller ROMS we are looking at building a small
bootloader that can run without BIOS support.  Etherboot keeps showing
up in the prototypes.

Assuming that a clean approach can be found to use etherboot in
linuxBIOS.  Would you be willing for etherboot to go in that direction?
The expectation here is that the linuxBIOS developers would contribute
the code to work with linuxBIOS.

On the etherboot side, for the boards supported by linuxBIOS
this neatly solves the problem of how to add etherboot to the boards
BIOS..

Ken, Marty, and company, if you have major objections to going
this route I'm going to kill this idea.  Reusing someone elses drivers
is not a solution maintainable long term.
