So you mean some sort of HAL like the VM on a IBM370 does.

Possible but linuxBIOS is a _long_ way from that.  And it's not really
compatible with its overall goal which is to get the hardware up
enough that a linux kernel can take over.  Load a payload into ram and
jump to that.

The qemu is a target in V2 if you start working with that you may be
able to do what you want.
