Building and Installing
-----------------------
Note: Currently only the x86 QEMU target is supported in LinuxBIOSv3.
1) Build a payload:
For example: FILO.
2) Configure LinuxBIOS:
$ make menuconfig
Select at least the desired mainboard vendor, the mainboard device,
the size of your ROM chip, and a payload.
3) Build the LinuxBIOS ROM image:
$ make
The generated ROM image is build/linuxbios.rom.
4) You can now test the LinuxBIOS image using:
$ qemu -L build -hda /dev/zero -serial stdio
If you have a full QEMU image with a Linux distribution installed,
you can boot that Linux kernel by using a proper FILO payload and typing:
$ qemu -L build -hda /tmp/qemu.img -serial stdio
