actually a real problem. I have not been able without hacks to find out
the memory "layout" in qemu except the old read,write,read method of

holes in memory and such, too.

Otoh, bochs and qemu (which per default uses the bochs bios) are
concentrating a lot on userspace, even though they would suit perfectly
for demonstrating and testing firmware development (besides the hardware
weirdnesses)

Its probally not very well suited then for a reference implementation.

Currently there is no "simple" port framework for v2. I'm proposing creating that. Then I'll attempt to use that to do my 440bx port and see how well it works. Perhaps thats what I'll call it... "simple"
