Dear all,
booting guests with uefi-edk2 bootrom works great, thanks for that great
support!
Unfortunately the VNC part seems to have keyscan problems:
Unhandled ps2 keyboard keysym 0xc4
Unhandled ps2 keyboard keysym 0xf6
Unhandled ps2 keyboard keysym 0xff7f
Just to list a view...
The really unfortunate problem is that some characters are completely
missing, while others are just shifted (involving even meta keys).
I haven't found any rule yet, it looks like a mixture of en-US and de-DE
layout.
Most unfortunate, I can't login because of the missing characters :-( So
close yet so far...
I haven't really looked into EDKII but saw that BhyvePkg/ (of
sysutils/uefi-edk2-bhyve) doesn't include filesystem support.
But what I'm really wondering about is how to influence boot order e.g.
If I boot into the EFI shell (edk2-bootrom guest) and return with exit
into the uefi firmware setup (still edk2-bootrom), I can select what to
boot with the boot manager (also MBR booting via CSM works great, thanks
thanks thanks!), and I can also save the settings, but they are lost if
bhyve(8) terminates.
There's /dev/vmm.io/host-bootrom, which I don't understand yet, but
probably that's a way to feed the firmware?
Thanks for any hints,
-harry
