Multiple people have reported that the EvoX v1.1 BIOS will not load Michael's
XBE loader properly. This is not going to be simple to debug!

Apparatently there is some kind of XBE patching goes on in the new BIOS,
someone suggested here that this might be behind the problems.

Either way, I don't think its a problem in Ed's Debian distro or points south,
the problem seems to be coming from interaction between the BIOS and the XBE
loader.
