Grep the tree. Find out where CONFIG_PCI_ROM_RUN is used. Find out where CONFIG_CONSOLE_VGA is used. Find out where vga_inited is used. Find out that my patch was actually rather trivial, and that there really is nothing to be afraid of. Needlessly including the pci_rom and emulator code is rather bad. Especially when i am working hard to not include a 64kB vga bios and instead limit the size for equal functionality to several kB. As for complexity, i am looking at a +4400 -1000 diff for native unichrome already. How useful is linuxbiosv3 at this point? Can it be used to boot something as well-known as the epia-m already? I really do not see what you continue to keep having against this trivial and rather sane fix.
