Hi Marcelo,
qemu-kvm's installation (0.11-rc as well as git head) is currently
broken /wrt extboot.bin. Please check some proper binary in as
pc-bios/extboot.bin.
Thanks,
Jan

It's built at runtime. Why check in a binary?

First of all, it's a qemu policy (AFAIK): try to build the rom, use
shipped version if that doesn't work. And second, we (more precisely
qemu) does not seem to use the optionrom output for installation yet.
The latter is likely subject to change, but the former is expected to stay.

Right, but this is qemu-kvm, which doesn't have the same issues
(building an i386 target on non-i386). When extboot is merged into
qemu.git, they can add the build-if-possible-otherwise-use-shipped thing.

We do, see 321b6ef91.

Well, people may expect qemu-kvm's source tree to build properly also
for non-kvm usage. But this is not that important for now.

Ah, I see: some out-of-tree build bug. Will fix.

... it just requires another patch to qemu's Makefile. Well.

And this patch is missing in master, isn't it?

IIRC it works in master somehow.

Old extboot.bin still hanging around in your pc-bios folder...? :)

It's not tested for non-kvm usage unfortunately.

That too is untested. Thanks.
