Hi All,
Fedora 28, x64
$ rpm -qa \*qemu-kvm\*

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:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Using_UEFI_with_QEMU
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?
Hi Patrick,
Well, it looks like Virt-manager won't let me configure it
after the VM is created. So I now have a KVM-USB and
KVM-USB-EUFI vm's. The second one it configured as
EUFI, instead of BIOS.
The XML file looks to be the loader section:
<os>
<type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-i440fx-2.11'>hvm</type>
<loader readonly='yes'
type='pflash'>/usr/share/edk2/ovmf/OVMF_CODE.fd</loader>
<nvram>/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/nvram/KVM-USB-EUFI_VARS.fd</nvram>
<boot dev='cdrom'/>
</os>
Thakn yo for hte help!
-T
It will boot off an EUFI .iso but not a EUFI USB drive
