Hi all I''m trying to compile xen tools with OVMF firmware, but the compilation fails due to the hardcoded use of gcc44 for OVMF. If I download the EDK2 source I get the same error if I set gcc to 4.4 but actually have 4.7, however, a patch is available for gcc47. I have tried to install both gcc46 and get the same error. I also tried gcc44 by instead get a python error. Gcc46 and gcc47

Hello. I played with UEFI PXE booting the other day, and as usual, used qemu/kvm virtual machine for initial testing/debugging, because it is way easier and faster for this task than using a real hardware. However, it looks like either qemu or {pxe,sys}linux 6.03 is buggy, -- the two does not play well together. When booting, the system successfully loads syslinux.efi, at least the tftp server

Hello all, hope all is well Was wondering if I'm doing something wrong/missing something. I have pxe+tftp+uefi working between 2 vms. However after the build is done and I reboot, I still come up to pxe b/c tianocore always starts, from what I've seen, with trying PXE first. Great for initial builds :) but I would like to it stop after. In the xml I am pointing to the disk to boot first.

Hi all I can''t seem to find any information on vga-passthrough when booting through xen.efi, so I assume it should work. But I encounter a problem on a windows 7 HVM that boots fine when dom0 is booted through MBR but fails when dom0 is booted through UEFI. My system is: DQ77KB motherboard with bios version 44 Core i7-3779T with VT-d Intel HD graphics 4000 In the qemu log it

Hi Attilio I have updated to the upstream Xen and try to boot into OVMF bios. Instead of fetching the OVMF code from the git mirror, I just copy the OVMF bios to ovmf directory. I use the bios="ovmf" in the HVM config file. But, there is an error when I create the domain. root@gavin-laptop:~# xl create hvm_ubuntu.hvm Parsing config file /root/hvm_ubuntu.hvm WARNING: specifying

Hi, I'm trying to use OVMF to run EFI-partitioned Windows 8.0 virtualized on my laptop. The reason is to reuse the original HDD image intact without re-installation of any kind. I'm running fully updated CentOS 7.1 (1503). Virtualized storage subsystem is VirtIO if it matters. I'm almost OK with the notable exception of inability to reboot the VM. OVMF bootloader doesn't

(Resending to the virt list after the original qemu-devel posting, following MST's advice; plus adding ipxe-devel too -- apologies for spamming!) Hi, the driver in question is intended as a fallback driver when the iPXE EFI driver for virtio-net is not present as an oprom. The series starts with technical notes that should help the virtio-net expert catch any errors more easily. This review

Recently upgraded my centOS 7 host, and was giving this error after trying to start the guest VM with virt-manager from my desktop: "Error starting domain: Path '/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.fd' is not accessible, no such file or directory" I was told on irc that the OVMF package is now part the base centOS repos, so it replaced the installed OVMF package from the repo

>>> Using VMware I built a test setup of a server with dhcp, tftp and a http-server and several pxe-clients with EFI mode turned on. This setup worked, albeit with the exponential-like decay of IO rate I described earlier. The work-around of using HTTP works beautifully though. <<< ""exponential-like decay of IO rate"" could you please post a link on

RFC v2 of this series This series implements a basic test job for OVMF guest. The test case will install an OVMF guest and try to boot it. It is also possible to derive a debian HVM installation test case from ts-ovmf-debian-install - the only difference should be the BIOS option. I tested running the test script without specifying BIOS, it worked fine. I just didn''t figure out a

I think it has to be something trivial, but I cannot start 2 windows servers at the same time on the same dom0. If I start server 2008 first I can''t start 2012, if I start 2012, I can''t start 2008.
