What about, http://www.openfirmware.org/ It already works with Sun, LinuxPPC (where I liked what I saw back around '95/96) and some BSDs.

It seems like it would have benefitted everyone if the LinuxBIOS folks worked with the OpenFirmware folks. -- Mike Hoskins This message is RFC 1855 compliant, mike@adept.org www.adept.org/pub/rfcs/rfc1855.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-cluster" in the body of the message
