PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to
detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.

- With this option, you can specify how Linux should detect the PCI
- devices. If you choose "BIOS", the BIOS will be used, if you choose
- "Direct", the BIOS won't be used, and if you choose "Any", the
