 setup properly with respect to irqs.

-Look into ways to reduce stack usage.
-
 Code assumes ebda segment is static - it doesn't read 0x40e.
 
 The __call16 code does a long jump to the interrupt trampolines - this
 is unnecessary.
 
-Fix makefiles so that they rebuild the required files automatically.
-
 Cleanup setting of ES on GET/SET_BDA
 
+Audit code for 16bit protected mode accesses.  Support 1ab1 from 16bit
+protected mode.  The BDA is technically at segment 0x0040 (not
+0x0000).
+
 Possibly implement 32bit pcibios support.
 
 Allow one to select adding 32 bit code to 0xf000 or in a separate
 location.
 
-Try generating bios tables at compile time.
+See if it is possible to handle interrupts while in 32bit mode.
+
+Add a kconfig style configuration program instead of requiring users
+to modify config.h.
+
+Look at integrating the lgpl vgabios into tree.
+
+Look at usb booting specs.  Look at possibly supporting usb
+keyboard/mice.
 
-Move e820 map generation to post time (just have e820 code copy pre
-made tables back to user).
+Add a graphical boot splash screen?
