It's free software, so you get to choose from multiple free firmware implementations for x86, some in C, some in Assembler, some in Forth: - Open Firmware (Forth) - Smart Firmware (C, compiles to Forth) - U-Boot (C, ASM) - coreboot v2/v3 (C) - LinuxBIOS v1 (C, ASM) Regards, Carl-Daniel -- http://www.hailfinger.org/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
