I used the following command line (again, a WinXP DOS Session .BAT file):
"..\qemu-system-i386w.exe" -m 256 -drive if=pflash,format=raw,unit=0,readonly,file=..\OVMF_CODE.fd -drive
if=pflash,format=raw,unit=1,file=..\OVMF_VARS.fd -device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi0 -drive
if=none,format=raw,readonly,file=..\UefiShell.iso,id=shell -device scsi-cd,bus=scsi0.0,drive=shell,bootindex=1
-chardev file,id=debugfile,path=ovmf.log -device isa-debugcon,iobase=0x402,chardev=debugfile -drive
file=uefi.bin.vhd,format=raw,if=ide,media=disk,index=0
The shell booted up as expected. However, my BOOT.efi file is now a:
"image is not an application"
I don't think I mentioned before, my BOOT.efi is an OS loader, not
a UEFI driver or other type application. Sorry, I should have mentioned
that earlier, hope that did not confuse you.
My BOOT.efi file has a value of 0x0B as the Subsystem value.
PE Optional Header: Subsystem: 0x000B
I removed the UefiShell.iso part:
"..\qemu-system-i386w.exe" -m 256 -drive if=pflash,format=raw,unit=0,readonly,file=..\OVMF_CODE.fd -drive
if=pflash,format=raw,unit=1,file=..\OVMF_VARS.fd -device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi0 -chardev
file,id=debugfile,path=ovmf.log -device isa-debugcon,iobase=0x402,chardev=debugfile -drive
file=uefi.bin.vhd,format=raw,if=ide,media=disk,index=0
and the shell was loaded, with the same result, "not an application".
Anyway, thanks for your help. I will figure this out, I am sure of it :-)
Ben
