I think I see the issue here. Are you running with i486 as an arch?
This is a deficiency of the OVMF support, because it has some
wrappers
to build appropriately the firmware which are OS and architectures
specific and it does support Linux-i686 and Linux-x86_64 but not
Linux-i486.
I'm not sure about what we should do here, possible options
include:
- Verify that, on all i486,i586,etc. we can eventually use i686 and
unify the script to do that
Surely it's just wanting to know roughly what architecture to build
for. The difference between i686 and i486 isn't relevant here.
(I hope. If it is then we have other problems because this is tested
at build-time and might be run on a different kernel to the one it's
built on.)
So I think this is the right thing to do.
Here is my take on OVMF for what is needed:
http://xenbits.xen.org/people/attilio/ovmf-xen-arches.patch
<http://xenbits.xen.org/people/attilio/ovmf-xen-arches.patch>
This should at least fix tianocore to build on all i*86 Linux
flavours.
Unfortunately I don't have a NetBSD machine to test it out, so if
Christoph and/or Roger can apply this patch to ovmf and try the
original patch on this thread (and verify NetBSD can build ok) I'll
propose this patch upstream for TIANOCORE, otherwise I will just send
out a patch with OVMF disabled until NetBSD is not tested.
To be more precise, you don't even need the patch at the beginning of
the thread, all you need to do to test you can build OVMF on NetBSD
is:
- git clone git://xenbits.xen.org/ovmf.git
- apply the patch above
- cd ovmf/OvmfPkg/
- $ ./build.sh
- $ ./build.sh -a X64
The build fails that build.sh is a bash-script and not a /bin/sh
script.
Please forget my previous e-mail.
I've updated the patch (same link) and I'd be grateful if you can give
it a try now.
I replaced #!/bin/bash with #!/usr/bin/env bash in the entire tree and
get this:

Yes, you also need to replace make with gmake in installation scripts.
Ok, you should allow to pass $(MAKE) to build.sh when building from the
Xen tree.
I get this now:
$ ./build.sh

(Sorry but I really don't have now a NetBSD machine to test on, so I
cannot really catch even silly mistakes).
Installing NetBSD in a virtual machine is not an option?
I'm trying that with a native FreeBSD, will let you know once I have a
patch ready to go.
