If flags[13] is set 2 fields are defined on addresses 104-107 resp 108-116
First field is firmware type
2 - BIOS. 16-bit mode BIOS interrupts are available. Second field is invalid
5 - 32-bit EFI. Second field contains pointer to EFI system table.

What about on Apple's EFI with its "compatibility" BIOS also activated? Don't both firmware interfaces work then, and one could theoretically want to pass both EFI and BIOS as parameter here?
