The bios used by hvmloader is not an external file, it's part of the hvmloader binary, linked in at compile time. It's currently based on bochs rombios 1.138 with some xen-specific patches.

Hi,

when I boot my windows, the bios that is used is a qemu bios. I'm searching for the bios file on my system that is used by the hvmloader. I found bios files from bochs :

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 131072 2008-06-28 03:05 /usr/share/bochs/BIOS-bochs-latest
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  65536 2008-06-28 03:05 /usr/share/bochs/BIOS-bochs-legacy
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 131072 2008-06-28 03:05 /usr/share/bochs/BIOS-qemu-latest

Does anybody know which one is used ?

Kindest regards,

Peter.
