Note that other machines may not need unit=1, for example pseries
doesn't need it (it uses -bios for the firmware, not -drive if=pflash).
It would be nice to make this easily configurable.
Is there a table anywhere where I can see what machine types support
this? Or does it makes sense to enable this only for
qemu-system-{x86_64,i386} -M pc and error out for all other combinations?
Alternatively you could use unit=1 if there is a <loader type='pflash'>
element, and unit=0 otherwise. We can then patch QEMU to reject unit=1
on machines that use -bios + -drive if=pflash,unit=0.
Laszlo, what happens on x86 with -bios + -drive if=pflash,unit=0?
