The vgabios and rombios used by Xen are not the same as the ones used/provided by qemu. I think you need to use the stuff from tools/firmware/{vga,rom}bios in the Xen source not anything provided by qemu.

Then I did a mistake, and currently in Squeeze, Xen qemu-dm is using the files from the "normal" qemu. I'll repair it right away in SID, and will try to have it uploaded to proposed-updates. But what about the other files? I am 100% sure that xen qemu-dm needs at least few network card BIOS files. Thomas ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

Now, the issue is these are in the source package of the hypervisor, not in the Git of xen-qemu-dm. Would you consider moving them to it? Or would you advise me to simply copy the tools/firmware/{vga,rom}bios folder into my source package and live with it like that? Or maybe, we should create a new "xen-qemu-roms" binaries out of the Xen hypervisor package? Bastian, if I give you a patch against your package to add a xen-qemu-roms binary, would you accept it?
