The _two_ linuxbios.strip binaries? I only see the one in my build tree. I was going to try and use mkflashimg but I think I need a DoC bit or two I haven't figured out yet. :-) > recent objdump (that supports i8086 arch) with -D (disassemble all) can > help to see where the pieces should go.

It's embarassing how much I've lost. I will do what I can along the way to try and document it as I (re)learn it (especially the boot process that LinuxBIOS takes).
