Good.

Which payload did you plan to put in the qemu target? I'm prospectively looking at the GRUB port (there's a SoC project) to build a LinuxBIOS image based on that. If you think that's good enough, we can go for it. Or otherwise we could use this "inject" feature to make the LinuxBIOS package payload-agnostic, and let payloads be handled separately. > Also, there will be a linuxbios-source package which > you can install and build your own images from scratch, too. Are you sure users will prefer this over upstream svn? Since proper operation of the code is so critical, I'd expect them to look for svn revisions that have been labeled as "good" for their hardware, which differs from user to user. That (and the fact that providing QA can become tedious) is why I was only thinking about qemu builds (at least for now). -- Robert Millan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
