yes.

On the systems we have done, we have first VSA, then VGA BIOS, then
linuxbios payload, then linuxbios.

I strongly recommend you build BIOS images with  the buildrom tool
from OLPC.  What size flash do you have? If it is < 1 MB, you want to
load either Open Firmware or FILO. FILO will likely be less work for
you.
