Hi,

I have been working on a port of bochs bios to gcc.  This port is
nearly complete.  The new code does not rely on bcc or dev86.
Instead, it uses standard gcc and gas.  It should compile on any
recent Linux distribution.

I'm sending this email because I understand kvm has a copy of bochs
bios in its repository.

I am successfully booting freedos, linux, and netbsd with qemu.  I'm
interested in finding people willing to test the bios on other images
and in different environments.  The code is still in a testing phase -
I don't think it will eat your data, but please be careful.

Source and pre-compiled bios images are available (use version 0.2.0)

'README' file, or at:

There is also a source code repository located at:
