we've got a couple of GPL violators in the linuxbios space. I know Orion Microsystems has got caught between a rock and a hard place and is distributing linuxbios-based systems without releasing sources; I have no idea if this via fastboot is linuxbios or not; via denies that it is.
I don't have the energy to pursue these guys.
A quick peek through the binary shows:
Build Boot notes ... LinuxBIOS Build boot notes [FIRMWARE_TYPE](0x%x) ... ok LinuxBIOS Build boot notes [BOOTLOADER_NAME](0x%x)
Hmmm... what's this in here?
I've always found VIA to be pretty helpful. Maybe someone can politely contact them for more info.
