Ah, Deskstation.  I have one of their MIPS products.  They tend to
write their own BIOSes.  The one I have on my MIPS platform looks
unlike anything else I've ever seen before or since.  One big problem,
according to the lists, is that they tend to produce fairly buggy
BIOSes tht work just well enough to install WinNT and boot WinNT and
usually not a whole lot beyond that.  At least that was my experience
when working with the rPC44 bios and the Tyne bios.
