Hello, Is there anyone to try EFI-BIOS on IA32 Xen HVM? EFI-BIOS/IA32 which is shipped from Xen''s EFI-BIOS/IA64 is effective on QEMU/IA32 but the network driver is not available. http://bellard.org/qemu/efi-bios.tar.bz2 ------ suzaki _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
Hi suzaki: Happy to see EFI bios works on x86. I have a question about VGA driver of EFI bios. I know there are three VGA relative drivers(VgaMiniport, VgaClass, Ciruss logic) in EDK2. Which one you used for x86? IA64 uses VgaMiniport and VgaClass now, but our windows can not get high color display. I wonder to know is there similar issue at x86 side. Thx.

Hi Wing, Excuse me, I have not used EFI-BIOS/IA32 on Xen-HVM. I want to use. EFI-BIOS/IA32 works on QEMU/IA32 and the video card is recognized as "Circuss Logic" by the "drivers" command of QEMU. ------ suzaki >>From: "Zhang, Xing Z" <xing.z.zhang@intel.com> >>Subject: RE: [Xen-devel] EFI-BIOS on IA32 >> >>Hi suzaki: >> Happy to see EFI bios works on x86. >> I have a question about VGA driver of EFI bios.

Porting to Xen/ia32 shouldn''t be very hard, but I can''t see the immediate benefit over qemu.> EFI-BIOS/IA32 which is shipped from Xen''s EFI-BIOS/IA64 is effective on > QEMU/IA32 but the network driver is not available.EFI only support eepro100 iirc.

I wonder to know is there similar issue at x86 side.EFI on x86 qemu uses the Cirrus driver during the EFI time and then switches to normal VGA during boot.

Thank you. I am debugging Cirrus VGA driver on IA64 now. It works fine on EFI, but things go to wrong when it switching to normal VGA driver of OS Good good study,day day up ! ^_^ -Wing(zhang xin) OTC,Intel Corporation>-----Original Message----- >From: tgingold@free.fr [mailto:tgingold@free.fr] >Sent: 2007?12?6? 17:32 >To: Zhang, Xing Z >Cc: Kuniyasu Suzaki; xen-devel@lists.xensource.com >Subject: RE: [Xen-devel] EFI-BIOS on IA32 > >Quoting "Zhang, Xing Z" <xing.z.zhang@intel.com>: > >> Hi suzaki: >> Happy to see EFI bios works on x86. >> I have a question about VGA driver of EFI bios.

Tristan, Thank you for your replay. The main problem is caused by E100 emulator as similar to QEMU. ------ suzaki >>From: tgingold@free.fr >>Subject: Re: [Xen-devel] EFI-BIOS on IA32 >> >>Quoting Kuniyasu Suzaki <k.suzaki@aist.go.jp>: >> >>> >>> Hello, >>> >>> Is there anyone to try EFI-BIOS on IA32 Xen HVM? >> >>AFAIK, no.
