Yes, it can. Simics is more or less a set of connected components, that is glued together by a set of scripts that builds the system configuration. I know LinuxBIOS has been run on some of the models. >> What we need is a full-system simulator with the following >> characteristics; >> [...] > > For this simulator to be done, a whole lot of understanding of the > hardware components is required, maybe including their errata.

I didn't say _we_ should implement a simulator just to run LinuxBIOS on it. Other projects should gain from a simulator, but LinuxBIOS might benefit the most from having one. Lets just hope someone identifies the need outside this project. ~j
