The majority is C, only about 20 lines or so of ASM. They haven't done
any work on SuperH, I think the only architecture its been programmed
for is x86. You can check out their website at http://www.linuxbios.com
although it's pretty vague, you kind of have to talk to them to get the
gist of it. NetBSD/Dreamcast also boots their NetBSD version from an
Ethernet source but their loader is on a disc, if we implement LinuxBIOS
you will never need a disc. No more playing around with getting it
booted and reburning with every revision. This would be a definite
bonus, I'll check out the source code...
