ROM-Size-Problem

Hello list,

here's my actual config-file, but somehow the resulting linuxbios.rom is 
only 64 kB instead of 256 kB, although setting: "option ROM_SIZE=262144"

Filling the Linuxbios.rom to 256 kB with zeros (dd if=/dev/zero bs=1k 
count=192 >> linuxbios.rom)  or with itself three more times (cat 
linuxbios.rom linuxbios.rom linuxbios.rom linuxbios.rom > bios256.rom) 
doesn't work, the monitor displays nothing (is framebuffer neccessary 
for that?!). So, how to make the generated linuxbios.rom will be 256 kB?

Thx, Tom
