Did you use the snapshots on the wiki or compiled the latest version from
source? It seems the snapshots are quite old and there have been recent
commits since. (I don't know if those fixed or broke things though.)
So I guess I have a bit more RTFM ahead of me. Maybe I can find a way
to copy boot.efi over to the actual EFI partition, which I assume is
the only one I can explore with OVMF from the entire disk image...
Linux can read hfs+ file systems and the EFI partition can also be mounted
and written to on OS X from the command line so it's easy to copy boot.efi
over to the EFI partition either on Linux or OS X.
You will need an EFI HFS+ driver (look at the refind pointer) because
boot.efi will use EFI callbacks to read the kernel and kext cache.
Right. Hopefully it does not rely on Apple's specific HFS+ support in
their firmware or that's compatible with what (at least one of) the EFI
drivers provide.
