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

Yes.

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.

I know. But isn't one of linuxBIOS goal to have a stable, remote configurable bios for use in clusters? Wouldn't a vm (or hal if you will) be even more useful than a Basic Input Output System?

that's the job for xen, not LinuBIOS
