QEMU and ElTorito and EDD 3

[Alex Roman]

I've been messing around with int 13h calls and it seems that the QEMU
BIOS supports EDD 3 extensions.

However, it does not support ElTorito extensions... I called the 4D
function (Return Boot Catalog) and the QEMU BIOS (I think) printed a
"nice" informative message:
"FATAL: Int13 eltorito call with AX=4D00. Please report" (see screenshot)

... which I will (report, that is) :)

But I thought I'd share the find first.. Looks like I'm going to have
to use either a different emulator (vmware&co.) or a real PC... What
do you folks suggest?


Cheers!
