can you please remove mentions of the video ROM file from:

http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/tianocore/index.php?title=How_to_run_OVMF
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/tianocore/index.php?title=OVMF

Can you please add links to

http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/OVMF
http://www.kraxel.org/repos/

somewhere? r11337 is extremely obsolete, and Gerd's repo provides
bleeding edge builds.

Thanks,
Laszlo
