Why do we have to do that? These parameters were never set for any of
the previous LinuxBIOS platforms with VGA support. Does the GX2
framebuffer driver require it?
The code in arch/i386/boot is for old fashion bootloaders like LILO/GRUB
and to make Linux kernel a boot floppy disk. On LinuxBIOS platforms
with Etherboot or FILO, they are not even in the image.
ok, so I guess I'm also not sure what's needed here. We have not set
this stuff up in years, IIRC.
