Yes, OS X support for CHIPSEC would be nice. I've asked the CHIPSEC team this question before, I think the only issue is lack of dev resources on the port. The good news is that once someone an OSX kernel driver stub, you can copy the same Intel assembly in the Windows and Linux drivers. I'd be nice if Apple stepped up and helped with their platforms' security by contributing the port and this driver. Otherwise, they'll have to keep relying on Linux to secure their systems. :-) Ditto Goggle/OHA for Android, and FreeBSD Foundation/iX Systems for FreeBSD... BTW, at a class last weekend one one student successfully ran LUV-live's CHIPSEC on a Mac system (macboo) as well.
