Subject: [Qemu-devel] RFC: Add a new boot parameter to set delay time before seabios retry to boot
Date: Thu, 06 Sep 2012 12:15:13 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <50482351.6050302@redhat.com> (raw)

Hi all,

Seabios supports automatically reboot after X second delay on failed 
boot [1],
I want to add a parameter for qemu, it's used put a boot parameter into 
romfile
for seabios to set the delay time.

# qemu ... -boot order=n,menu=on,delay=5 ...


Comments & suggestions ? Thanks!


[1] commit b8fcf46826e77c835da0ad8127a17895bb2e2fca

     Automatically reboot after 60 second delay on failed boot.

     If no valid boot devices are found, display the error for 60 seconds
     (by default) and then reboot.  This enables a periodic retry in case
     one of the boot devices is still coming online.
