+			SeaBIOS isn't really needed since libreboot uses the GRUB payload which
+			is much better (for several reasons), so it is no longer included in the ROM
+			images by default. Instead, you can add it afterwards.
+		</p>
+
+		<p>
+			In the supplied binary archives, or in your own (if you did 'build-release') you can add SeaBIOS
+			to the ROM images, along with SeaVGABIOS which is a free/libre Video BIOS implementation that wraps
+			around the 'native graphics initializitation' code in coreboot, for boards that have support for it.

+
+		<p>
+			SeaBIOS and SeaVGABIOS (which the build scripts created, and the build-release script put - compiled - 
+			inside the binary archive) have now been added to all of the ROM images under ./bin/. A GRUB menuentry will show
+			up when you boot your machine, allowing you to use SeaBIOS.
