I don't plan on doing any work on this in the near future, but what are people's opinions about implementing an EFI BIOS for m5 rather than a traditional BIOS? I think EFI would be easier to implement and work with and easier to get documentation and support tools for, but a traditional BIOS would potentially be compatible with more guests. EFI supports a compatibility layer, but at that point we'd be approximating implementing both, I think. That may be ok because I think most BIOS services are ignored by most modern guests, with the fairly minor exception of a boot loader.
