Hi Lukas,
Yeah we only fixed vmxnet3 and gave up on e1000e, see the first section on
comment #8.
e1000e had issues but was considered not too important to make this a big thing.
If there is a super-special really-hard-need-e1000e use-case then please file a
new bug to discuss there.

Hi
I have installed the ipxe package (1.0.0+git-20180124.fbe8c52d-0ubuntu2)
on ubuntu 18.04. However, there is no efi-e1000e.rom, and hence qemu
does not work with a e1000e device. I'm trying to run the following
command:
qemu-system-x86_64 -netdev user,id=network0 -device
e1000e,netdev=network0
This bug was fixed in the package ipxe - 1.0.0+git-20180124.fbe8c52d-
0ubuntu2

I was looking into that and it seems vmxnet3 is totally fine.
But e1000e has build issues.
I think I have seen this kind of issue on rom builds in the past but couldn't
get it working reliably. OTOH e1000e is only the emulated card and vmxnet3
probably way more important.

Updating qemu is distinct from updating ipxe.
So when we moved what was I think qemu 2.6.1 -> 2.8 that di

Hi Nathan,
I highly appreciate you coming up with the change proposed here as I can
include it when working on this set of packages anyway.
IMHO it is an actual feature request, even thou the reasons to have missed to
add the feature earlier lie in the past - I want you to understand why, so I

This isn't exactly a feature request, it should have been added when
