Hello Paul,

I am the president of the Dutch OS/2 VOICE organisation. I have also kind of been lurking here look at this possibility. Instead of modiying legacy OS'es I was wondering if a UEFI loader could be created with SeaBIOS build in. I think I did ask the question once on this list but never got a reply. Off to work!

Something I think is very hopefull was this thread:
https://communities.intel.com/thread/51481?start=0&tstart=0

"I have FreeDOS running on Galileo using SeaBIOS as a CSM (Compatibility Support Module)."

I am very interested to heat the opinion of other people!
Then again what operating system do your colleagues need or use a virtual machine. And how many modern Linux, FreeBSD versions do not support UEFI ? Then again if you are running an older OS of an application that can be ported.

Best regards,

Roderick Klein

Dear SeaBIOS folks,


Colleagues from another institute have the problem, that the PC vendors
started to remove the CSM (legacy BIOS) option from their UEFI firmware.
A lot of organizations still use the CSM (legcacy BIOS) option to deploy
their systems.

I’d like to recommend SeaBIOS to them, but I only found instruction for
doing that with OVMF [1].

Do you know of a how-to for UEFI firmware, which is shipped on hardware?
From that iPXE should be started.


Kind regards,

Paul
