We would sure like to be able to boot freebsd, but freebsd makes bios 
calls. 

Any way we can change this (i.e. pass info freebsd needs via tables).

Openbsd boots, so does win2k, so we're not linux-centric.

Hello,
	I have updated the FAQ with various comments from
	"Booting from floppy" thread. Comments on FAQ welcome.

		http://www.eax.com/ADLO-FAQ.html

	This FAQ does not intend to duplicate LinuxBIOS FAQ but rather
	give a bird view of the various BIOS projects and give someone new
	to the BIOS projects better idea what's it about and why someone
	would want to do this.

	In this release:
	  new question     * Q10: What is what?
	  heavily updated  * Q3: So is this accomplishment just art for art's sake?
	  updated question * Q6: So when can I expect to see it in commerical motherboards?
