- ale42 4y agoWhat I'd really like to see is a way to boot FreeDOS on UEFI. Of course this would require a BIOS emulator somewhere, either inside a native UEFI version of FreeDOS (not very probable to happen, I think), or as an external UEFI executable that can then boot a BIOS system (parts of this do exist, I think).
- blueflow 4y agoDeveloping for "legacy" BIOS is easier at this point because there is less legacy to implement (Windows binaries, Win64 ABI, FAT file system). EFI is a huge pain osdev-wise and thats why nobody wants to do it.
