Description lekto 2024-11-01 14:58:30 UTC 
Hi, after installing edk2 there is a message about using it with qemu:
> * In order to use the firmware you can run qemu the following way
> * 
> * $ qemu-system-x86_64 		-drive file=/usr/share/edk2-ovmf/OVMF.fd,if=pflash,format=raw,unit=0,readonly=on 		...

but, file OVMF.df doesn't exist:

File OVMF_CODE.fd works with qemu.

This has been fixed as of 202408, which is about to be stabilised.
