I think you will have a lot of difficulty in getting this project to
work and find that it involves a lot more low level stuff than you could
possibly imagine. However, I would like to promote exploration. The only
thing even close to this that I have heard of is LinuxBIOS. You might
take a look at what they have at http://www.linuxbios.org and see what
you can do.
