For an embedded PC if you can force the display modes first you can probably
avoid everything but bank switching by making VESA 1.2 bios calls before
you put the CPU into useful mode. For other machines you end up needing to
performn the initialisation sequence for the board, which I am not sure is
in any public handy documentation.
