UPX is a compressor for executable files.  Allowing those executable
files to decompress themselves.  The nice thing for linuxBIOS is that
the compression alogorithm seems to have a better compression ration
than gzip for the linux kernel.  So once we figure it out we should be
able to put more into the rom.
