Bus Pirate Support / BIOS POST codes monitoring in real time using bus pirate
I am trying to monitor the boot process of a computer, mainly BIOS POST codes and linux kernel boot process. I know how to do it for the linux kernel using a serial port, but I am not able to imagine how to monitor the BIOS POST codes.

I know that the BIOS sends them to the ISA I/O address 0080h.

Could be possible to use the bus pirate to sniffer this I/O port and to monitor the BIOS post process? I mean, perhaps tha bus pirate board could have the same capabilities that a PCI/ISA POST CARD (http://pcsupport.about.com/od/termsp/g/postcard.htm).

Thanks in advance,

Antonio
