--- Comment #1 from Alex Deucher alexdeucher@gmail.com --- Apple's EFI implementation does not provide a way to fetch the vbios after the OS takes over. IIRC, you need a special bootloader and kernel support for fetching the vbios before passing control to the OS. I think Matthew Garret had patches to support this at some point, I'm not sure what their status is. The other option is to boot using the legacy bios interface (not EFI).
