I feel am doing something wrong here.
As mentioned in the tutorial, if you increase ROM_SIZE to generate an image larger than 2 MB, you also need to patch qemu to accept a larger BIOS ROM. Look at my original patch (http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2006-09/msg00155.html) for an example; just change the instances of 2048*1024 to a larger number to increase the BIOS size. --Ed -- linuxbios mailing list linuxbios@linuxbios.org http://www.openbios.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
