I believe this had been discussed a while ago, but I can't find it, and
I would
also like to know if there has been anything newer on this:

What would happen if linuxbios insted of loading an operating system or
boot loader
would load an image of the BIOS, revert to 16bit mode and jump to it?


Of course the answer I would like to hear is "everything would work ok
and it would
be as if linuxbios had never run, and you could run that other OS noone
ever mentions
and live happily ever after", but I guess it is not that easy. (For
example, is
the 'revert to 16bit mode' possible without using VM86?)

TIA,
