Hi Laszlo, I have read the bug report, and confirmed that my efibootmgr possesses the same problem.
BootCurrent: 0004 BootOrder: 0005,0000,0001,0002,0003,0004 Boot0000* EFI DVD/CDROM ACPI(a0341d0,0)PCI(1,1)ATAPI(1,0,0) Boot0001* EFI Floppy ACPI(a0341d0,0)PCI(1,0)ACPI(60441d0,0) Boot0002* EFI Floppy 1 ACPI(a0341d0,0)PCI(1,0)ACPI(60441d0,1) Boot0003* EFI Network ACPI(a0341d0,0)PCI(3,0)MAC(52540076e9a3,1) Boot0004* EFI Internal Shell MM(b,3fb0e000,3ffbdfff) Boot0005* opensuse HD(1,800,4e000,87f09d6f-dc40-4eaf-b90b-9c2c7d4ffdb5)File(\EFI\opensuse\grubx64.efi) However I did not stumble into the problem. I checked with my EFI preboot environment to make sure that virtio-blk DXE driver were really in use to manage my disk. > drivers T D D Y C I R P F A V VERSION E G G #D #C DRIVER NAME IMAGE NAME == ======== = = = == == =================================== =================== 45 00000010 D - - 1 - Virtio Block Driver VirtioBlkDxe 46 00000010 ? - - - - Virtio SCSI Host Driver VirtioScsiDxe > dh -d 45 45: Image(VirtioBlkDxe) ImageDevPath (..3CA9-4F93-BA2E-4780ED3E03B5))DriverBinding ComponentName ComponentName2 Driver Name : Virtio Block Driver Image Name : FvFile(11D92DFB-3CA9-4F93-BA2E-4780ED3E03B5) Driver Version : 00000010 Driver Type : DEVICE Configuration : NO Diagnostics : NO Managing : Ctrl[81] : PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x4,0x0) > map fs0 Device mapping table fs0 :HardDisk - Alias hd21b blk0 PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x4,0x0)/HD(1,GPT,87F09D6F-DC40-4EAF-B90B-9C2C7D4FFDB5,0x800,0x4E000) Do you have any suggestions on why it cannot be reproduce on my side ? Finally provide my virt-install options for reference. virt-install --connect qemu:///system --name vmos123efi --virt-type=kvm --os-type=linux --os-variant=opensuse12 --disk path=/dev/system/vmos123efi --network bridge=br0,model=virtio --cdrom=/home/linux/Downloads/openSUSE-12.3-DVD-x86_64.iso --vcpus=4 --ram 1024 --boot loader=/home/linux/OVMF/OVMF-f1f4721.fd Thanks, Michael 2013/8/27 Laszlo Ersek <ler...@redhat.com>: > OVMF is "UEFI boot firmware for virtual machines", hence a new use case > for efibootmgr [1] [2].
