So, FTR, right now -pflash works with fedora, but with OS X (requires
all of Reza's patches) I get an apple but no spinning boot circle
thingie on the screen, and it hangs indefinitely.

"-bios OVMF.fd" works just fine with both. I still haven't figured out
how to pass a "-v" to OS X via OVMF, so I can see verbose text-mode boot
messages scroll by for extra clues. Reza, any idea how I'd be able to
do that ?

Thanks,
