emu86 in klibc
...plug x86 video cards into ia64 and ppc
machines. People do this because the x86 versions are half the price
of the OpenFirmware ones. Even x86 machines need to run the ROMs for
secondary cards. I'm in the process of modifying fbdev to use hotplug
events to run these ROMs.
What about including emu86 support in non-x86 builds and vm86 on x86
in klibc? The linux BIOS people have a 40K version of emu86 available.
Right now video ROMs would be the only user of this but there are SCSI
disk controllers with boot ROM too that no one is developing for.
