LinuxBIOS

Hi,

Has anyone tried LinuxBIOS? I would like to hear some pro/cons and any hints/tips.

Thanks.

Re: LinuxBIOS

I just read a Slashdot article on this and figured I would bump this up because I am interested too. I have a old dual p4 server that takes forever to get to grub. So...pros/cons and hints/tips?

Since LinuxBIOS must initialize the bare hardware, it must be ported to every chipset and motherboard that it supports.

I'm guessing that it doesn't support many so far...
