Today I've heard about a Linux-ready Firmware Development Kit. The project is being introduced by Intel and is mainintained by Intel people. This would be interesting to explore for several reasons. What are the looking for in the BIOS to consider it to be compatible with Linux? Since the source code is availabe, the project is open-source, this can be easily done. The other reason of course is to see how compatible our system is in Linux. We are booting Linux and have been certified by some Linux distributions, but ... The downside of this project is that it is not an industry standard, but rather somebody's opionion.
