Hi,

I wrote a paper on LinuxBIOS on the AMD64 platform that covers
some aspects on the following topics:

 * image configuration
 * porting LinuxBIOS to new AMD64 motherboards
 * debugging and tweaking hints
 * some internals 

The document is available at 
http://www.openbios.org/docs/LinuxBIOS-AMD64.pdf

I am very glad to announce that this document is released under the GPL,
so please go ahead and use it, spread it, change it. But please do
submit your changes back so everybody can benefit. I suggest putting the
document in the freebios2 documentation subdirectory, if nobody objects.
(What is the preferred file format for that? TeX? The document was
initially created using OpenOffice 1.1 8)

Don't hesitate to make suggestions on improvement, report typos, badly
written english, or whatever comes to your mind when reading the paper.

  Stefan
