Hello everybody,
This is Ayush. I am trying to run the FreeBSD 13.0-CURRENT-amd64 VM
image(qcow2) on my Arch Linux using QEMU(using the virt-manager ). It boots
just fine when I boot with BIOS as the firmware but it does not boot when I
am using UEFI firmware(ovmf) to run the VM. The EFI Shell loads. I have
checked the boot order priority 1 is given to HARD DISK only still it does
not boot. I read some related issues mainly this [1]
<https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=213333>.(actually I
tried booting CURRENT using it's bootonly ISO image as well).
I have Intel Core i5-2520M CPU.(I choose Hypervisor default CPU for my VM
image)

Regards,
Ayush Dwivedi
