Um, what's a "bios"? AFAIK no Sun-3 has anything known as a bios (nor
BIOS); I thought the term was restricted to the intel-dos-box world.
I'm not entirely clear on what a dos-box BIOS does, but from what
little I do know, it sounds like a rudimentary OS in ROM, which I'm
fairly sure Sun-3s don't have, so there's not even anything very close.
