I tried both and I can compile a linuxbios.rom.
But it is to small:

--snip--
video:/usr/src/neues_bios/LinuxBIOSv2/targets/digitallogic/adl855pc/adl855pc# ls -l linuxbios.rom
-rw-r--r-- 1 root src 393216 2007-05-28 18:18 linuxbios.rom
--snip--

My Config.lb looks like this:

video:/usr/src/neues_bios/LinuxBIOSv2/targets/digitallogic/adl855pc# grep -v ^# Config.lb |grep -v ^$
target adl855pc
mainboard digitallogic/adl855pc
option ROM_SIZE=512*1024
option DEFAULT_CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL=10
option MAXIMUM_CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL=10
romimage "image"
        option USE_FALLBACK_IMAGE=0
				option ROM_IMAGE_SIZE=80 * 1024
			  option LINUXBIOS_EXTRA_VERSION=".0Normal"
			  payload /usr/src/neues_bios/filo-0.5/filo.elf
end
buildrom ./linuxbios.rom ROM_SIZE "image"

my payload works with qemu.
