linuxbios and bochs

[Brian G. Rhodes]

I'm booting linuxbios with a adlo/bochs payload on a VIA EPIA 800. I have
also disabled vga in bochs so thatit does not hang when vgabios is not
present.  Bochs will load about 10% of the time when rebooting the system.
The rest of the time it will hang.

I am quite certain that it is somewhere in bochs where the problem exists
since I can load etherboot from linuxbios without issue.  The times bochs
does load from linux generally hangs shortly after lilo loads the kernel.

What I am wondering is if anyone else has had this problem and come up
with a workaround, or knows the reason, or atleast where I should look
more closely.
