hi there

is the EFI BIOS (http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/download.html -> 
efi-bios.tar.bz2) supposed to work with kvm? I wan't to try installing 
Mac OS X.

README of efi-bios tells "You must use the CVS version of QEMU to use 
the BIOS (the version 0.9.0 won't work)" so, which qemu version is kvm 
based on? i'm using kvm-63 module and utilities.

Or maybe this doesn't work at all with kvm?


KVM says now:

#> kvm -hda efi.disk -vnc :1
qemu: could not load PC bios '/usr/share/kvm/bios.bin'

(where bios.bin is replaced by efi bios.bin)
