Public bug reported: I am unable to boot from a EFI disk image on aarch64 qemu.
I have qemu built and installed from sources on a jetson-nano qemu-system-aarch64 -version QEMU emulator version 5.2.50 (v5.2.0-3234-gbdee969c0e) Copyright (c) 2003-2021 Fabrice Bellard and the QEMU Project developers KVM and and virtio are enabled in host kernel. Now I want to boot a ChromiumOS image. I have the image downloaded from here: https://chromium.arnoldthebat.co.uk/?dir=daily The image looks fine: rreddy78@jetson-nano:~/Downloads$ fdisk -lu chromiumos_image.bin Disk chromiumos_image.bin: 6.2 GiB, 6606109184 bytes, 12902557 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: gpt Disk identifier: C5B6CA94-0AF1-374E-90B5-A5CF4DC1FF51 Device Start End Sectors Size Type chromiumos_image.bin1 4513792 12902508 8388717 4G Linux filesystem chromiumos_image.bin2 20480 53247 32768 16M ChromeOS kernel chromiumos_image.bin3 319488 4513791 4194304 2G ChromeOS root fs chromiumos_image.bin4 53248 86015 32768 16M ChromeOS kernel chromiumos_image.bin5 315392 319487 4096 2M ChromeOS root fs chromiumos_image.bin6 16448 16448 1 512B ChromeOS kernel chromiumos_image.bin7 16449 16449 1 512B ChromeOS root fs chromiumos_image.bin8 86016 118783 32768 16M Linux filesystem chromiumos_image.bin9 16450 16450 1 512B ChromeOS reserved chromiumos_image.bin10 16451 16451 1 512B ChromeOS reserved chromiumos_image.bin11 64 16447 16384 8M unknown chromiumos_image.bin12 249856 315391 65536 32M EFI System Partition table entries are not in disk order.
