Hi,
The option rom stuff has a number of short comings. Because we hijack
int19, extboot doesn't get to run. That means that if you use -kernel to
load a grub (the Ubuntu guys for their own absurd reasons) then grub
does not see extboot backed disks. The solution for them is the same,
generate a proper disk and boot from that disk.
Oh, having extboot + linuxboot + multiboot register a BEV (correct
acronym?) entry instead of hijacking int19 would fix that too.
Additional bonus will be that they are selectable in the boot menu.
Good idea except that we are not good at communicating to seabios where
do we want to boot from by default.
We have the firmware configuration interface for that, if we can
tolerate its speed.
