here's one possibility. Once we get the ds10 linuxbios source into the
tree, based on what Eric Biederman has learned, it may turn out to be not
too hard. Only real issue is how big the flash is on the PC164, but my
guess is "plenty big", since it has that SRM in it, and SRM is huge.
So let me get back to you once we plug Alpha support into the linuxbios
tree. This will happen within the month.
