Summary : An utility to read/write LinuxBIOS parameters
|
Description :
At boot time, LinuxBIOS places a table (known as the LinuxBIOS table) in low physical memory. The contents of this table are preserved even after LinuxBIOS transfers control to the kernel and the kernel initializes itself. The LinuxBIOS table contains various system information such as the type of mainboard in use. It also specifies locations in the CMOS (nonvolatile RAM) where the LinuxBIOS parameters are stored.
WARNING: This tool is useful only for LinuxBIOS capable hardware. Please visit http://www.linuxbios.org for more informations.
