SeaBios Alternatives
SeaBios is described as 'SeaBIOS is an open source implementation of a 16bit X86 BIOS. SeaBIOS can run in an emulator or it can run natively on X86 hardware with the use of coreboot' and is an app. There are five alternatives to SeaBios for Linux, Android, Chrome OS, BSD and Windows. The best alternative is coreboot, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like SeaBios are Libreboot, Das U-Boot, XTIDE Universal BIOS and petitboot.
coreboot (formerly known as LinuxBIOS) is a free software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS firmware found in most computers with a lightweight system designed to perform only the minimum of tasks necessary to load and run a modern 32-bit or 64-bit operating system.
Like coreboot, libreboot is boot firmware intended as a free 'BIOS' replacement for your computer.
The "Universal Bootloader" ("Das U-Boot"), commonly shortened to U-Boot, is an open source primary bootloader for embedded systems.
Features
XTIDE Universal BIOS makes it possible to use modern large ATA hard disks or Compact Flash cards on old PC's. You can then enjoy quiet or noiseless drives with more capacity than you'll ever need for old computers.

Petitboot is a platform independent bootloader based on the Linux kexec warm reboot mechanism. Petitboot supports loading kernel, initrd and device tree files from any Linux mountable filesystem, plus can load files from the network using the FTP, SFTP, TFTP, NFS, HTTP and HTTPS...
