Nice. I need very shortly to add in support for motherboard identification. And more reporting of motherboard info like the presence of a DOC slot into LinuxBIOS. So we probably need a new mainboard directory for this one. Knowing exactly which board you are on is important for automating the flash procedure and making certain you don't flash the wrong motherboard. Having LinuxBIOS report all of the onboard hardware is important for software autoconfiguration. I am also going to tag the romimage with this information in addition to reporting it in the LinuxBIOS table. And if I can think of a good way I will also tag the romimage with a checksum. Eric
