Whenever I use the live build, I don't have the firmware I need for my VM, which, in this case, would be the kvmvapic.bin and efi-e1000.rom. I can o only guess that would be true for any firmware. I had to copy these files from my BTRFS snapshot. Is that purposeful?
Created attachment 831943 [details] Files discrepancy between the ebuild and live ebuild versions Mostly firmwares.
The file changes between non-live and live: <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/hppa-firmware.img <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/firmware/60-edk2-x86_64.json <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/firmware/60-edk2-i386.json <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/firmware/60-edk2-arm.json <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/firmware/60-edk2-aarch64.json <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/firmware/50-edk2-x86_64-secure.json <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/firmware/50-edk2-i386-secure.json <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/efi-vmxnet3.rom <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/efi-virtio.rom <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/efi-rtl8139.rom <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/efi-pcnet.rom <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/efi-ne2k_pci.rom <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/efi-eepro100.rom <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/efi-e1000e.rom <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/efi-e1000.rom <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/edk2-x86_64-secure-code.fd <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/edk2-x86_64-code.fd <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/edk2-licenses.txt <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/edk2-i386-vars.fd <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/edk2-i386-secure-code.fd <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/edk2-i386-code.fd <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/edk2-arm-vars.fd <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/edk2-arm-code.fd <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/edk2-aarch64-code.fd <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/canyonlands.dtb <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/bios.bin <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/bios-microvm.bin --- replaced sym /usr/share/qemu/bios-256k.bin <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/bamboo.dtb <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/QEMU,tcx.bin <<< obj /usr/share/qemu/QEMU,cgthree.bin --- replaced dir /usr/share/qemu So not only does it seem like some QEMU files aren't being installed by the live ebuild, it also seems that edk2 (and maybe more?) are insufficiently unbundled in the non-live ebuilds, which is a separate problem.
