<DIV><SPAN class=273160517-23082006><FONT face=Arial size=2>Specifically what
I am interested in is the ability to modify the PCI base address registers and
excercise the address decoders on the cards. What I'm after is some basic PCI

<DIV><SPAN class=273160517-23082006><FONT face=Arial size=2>My problem is that
I'm having a tough time with the learning curve of openbios. I'm having
trouble figuring out how to do some basic things, like query the BARs of a PCI
device. I'm using Qemu as a sandbox to play with openbios, but I can't even
figure out how print the value of configuration register zero of a particular
device!</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
