Package: ovmf-ia32 Version: 2020.11-2+deb11u1 Hi,
Recently I wanted to analyze behavior of a 32-bit EFI OS bootfile, and wanted to setup a KVM with 32 bit UEFI to do this. However, qemu/kvm apparently does not (yet) support .secboot.fd UEFI images, but these are the only ones available in ovmf-ia32. Qemu just hangs on "Gues has not initialized the display (yet)" when given a secboot image (when specified with -drive if=pflash...), or fails immediately with "could not load PC BIOS ..." when specified with -bios (but the latter happens with any 4M firmware image) Eventually, I got ahead by getting an old RPM from Fedora 30, which does also contain a non-secboot firmware image. This booted just fine on my Debian Qemu. Please bring back non-secboot images, until qemu can support secboot (or until they supply readily discoverable documentation how to use secboot). N.B. Non-secboot images are available alright in the 64bit version of ovmf, but unfortunately I needed an 32bit UEFI for my tests. Regards, Alain
