Subject: Re: [LIB] BIOS 8GB Limit - Fix?

Well, while EZ-Drive and W9x may sound like overkill, it has worked perfectly
for me for 3+ years continously on my W9x dual-boot setup w/o a single problem
whatsoever.  That said, it can be the 'easy' fix for most non-technical users.

Anyways, BIOS disassembly isn't much farther away than a quick dump - believe I
even dumped the L50/J BIOS myself a long time ago and had a brief look at it -
see Mailing List Archives.  But because BIOS programming is much more sensitive
to errors, I didn't touch it to try and change things then.

Maybe if we ask one of those guys doing the Open-Source PC boot BIOS project
for a little hack if we send them an image of the BIOS?  They should know how
to do it since they're trying to write a complete linux boot BIOS for a PC from
scratch.

side note on that other thread on mail delays: got my reply to this in just 1
