It it legal to do so? Afaik they usually are under GPL license or comparable, so they can be distributed with an emulator? E.g. Generic Super PC/Turbo XT BIOS(I have permission from it's developer, so that shouldn't be a problem) and SeaBIOS(for 386+ systems)?
Edit: As far as I can see, both can be used and distributed with non-GPL or non-opensource programs as ROMs(as long as it's not using modified source, which requires the resulting modified source code to be distributed as well due to copyleft license)? So they would be perfect for our x86 emulators? The only thing theoretically missing is a open source BIOS for IBM AT emulation?
