Since C3 is going to be frequented by security-conscious people and general interest in tampering with hardware will be high, try this: * SSH into BIOS for the paranoid * Authenticated booting * Using any TPM against the intention of the vendor Other points: * Very fast boot process -> for routers it means availability one second after switchon > * Mention OLPC. (But what are the important points?) * BIOS can already use wireless * Automatic authenticated BIOS updates * BIOS can be tailored to individual needs (wireless/wired network card support, ipv4/ipv6, flat panel/vga...) * BIOS bugs can be fixed even if upstream is not ready/cooperating (not that I would want to suggest that upstream was uncooperative) Regards, Carl-Daniel -- http://www.hailfinger.org/ -- linuxbios mailing list [email protected] http://www.openbios.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
