Hmmm... indeed! My bios.bin size is 64KB. I am using the bios coming with ADLO (bochs/bios/ in ADLO directory) So I understand that the 64KB bios only provides 16bit BIOS, and the 128KB (which is catted by 16bit (64K) + 32bit (another 64K)) provides both 16bit & 32bit BIOS? If that is correct, how to get the 128K BIOS now? Thanks, Jun -- linuxbios mailing list linuxbios@linuxbios.org http://www.linuxbios.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
