I still think it's better to simply have qemu generate the acpi tables, but if that isn't going to be accepted we should seriously consider & evaluate switching to coreboot. >>> load the boot firmware (SeaBIOS or OVMF or >>> something else -- not sure how to configure that), > > It wouldn't be loading OVMF. It would be loading CorebootPkg. Yep. Some OVMF bits would be needed though (virtio drivers, qemu boot priority support, ...). cheers, Gerd _______________________________________________ SeaBIOS mailing list SeaBIOS@seabios.org http://www.seabios.org/mailman/listinfo/seabios
