We should fix qemu to re-read bios from flash.
Makes sense?

We have option_rom_setup_reset() already.

We don't, anymore :)
We are fast! Well, we surely have something similar instead.

Sure.  Try 'info roms'.  Everything listed there will be reloaded on
reset (unless mem=rom, in which case the guest should not be able to
modify the bits in the first place).  That includes vgabios,
optionroms, -kernel images, ...

And what about bios? I don't see it there.

pc.c does some magic here to map the complete bios into high memory and the legacy part at 0xe0000, thats why it is loaded in a different way. It gets loaded to IO_MEM_ROM memory though, so the guest should not be able to corrupt it.

cheers,
  Gerd
