don't forget you can make your own!
I have
targets/arima/hdama/Config.filo.lb
and I do this:
./buildtarget arima/hdama/Config.filo.lb
File is this:
# Sample config file for the Arima HDAMA
target hdama.filo
mainboard arima/hdama
romimage "normal"
option USE_FALLBACK_IMAGE=0
option ROM_IMAGE_SIZE=0x10000
option LINUXBIOS_EXTRA_VERSION=".0Normal"
payload /opt/filo/normal/filo.elf
end
romimage "fallback"
option USE_FALLBACK_IMAGE=1
option ROM_IMAGE_SIZE=0x10000
option LINUXBIOS_EXTRA_VERSION=".0Fallback"
payload /opt/filo/fallback/filo.elf
end
buildrom ./linuxbios.rom ROM_SIZE "normal" "fallback"
