Two separate vendors, with quite different platforms, have submitted ports = to OpenPlatformPkg making use of the "ramdisk" driver from https://svn.code= .sf.net/p/efi-toolkit/code/trunk/efi-toolkit/protocols/ramdisk/ As part of moving their platforms to edk2-platforms I would just like to re= visit that, so that they (on cc) can explain their use-cases and maybe othe= rs can chime in on alternative solutions to their problems? Alternatively, is this something that _should_ be available in edk2? Regards.
