OUTDATED |
This project eventually turned into the highly successful linuxBIOS project. Please visit that project, development continued there. |
introduction |
The goal of the FreeBIOS project is to be a central gathering point for BIOS firmware code which can be used to initialize and boot various services. Initially, due to the large scope of the project, FreeBIOS will likely only boot the Linux kernel on a few chipsets. Eventually the goal will be to provide a complete BIOS replacement for many popular motherboards. |
