Miniboot on a Jensen?

Looking thru the sources for miniboot on gatekeeper, I noticed that there
doesn't seem to be any support for the Jensen motherboard.... are there any
plans to add the support? I would love to see that, or be pointed to the
tech info to do so, as I think I could use it to bootstrap Linux onto my
box. (I would use OSF/1, but I don't have the right version of firmware, and
the person I need to talk to has been out of town...)
I've been looking thru the code for both boot and miniboot, and I think it
may be possible to use miniboot to boot Linux off the net... esp. since it
lets you bundle Linux into itself.
Thanks,
