Actually this is very easy, The DoC requires only 8kB address window, if we use a 128KB flash EEPROM for LinuxBIOS, we still have the MSB address line free to acts as Chip Select. I believe this have been done by someone in Austria (sorry, I forgot the name) before. On the other hand, we lost the beauty of "only one flash needed".
