Hi All,

Fedora 28, x64

$ rpm -qa \*qemu-kvm\*
qemu-kvm-2.11.1-2.fc28.x86_64

I set up a VM to test bootable flash drives.  The
only ones it will boot are standard boot drives and
not eufi drives.

Is there any trick to booting off a eufi USB
flash drive?

You may need OVMF (https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/OVMF)

dnf install edk2-ovmf.noarch

poc


# dnf install edk2-ovmf.noarch

Package edk2-ovmf-20171011git92d07e4-3.fc28.noarch is already installed,
skipping.
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!

It's not just installing the RPM, you also have to configure your VM:

Is this what I am looking for?

--boot uefi

If so do I manually insert it into my xml file?  Or
is there somewhere in Virt Manager to configure it?
