Hi Alexander, This issue blocks all testings for qemu7.2, could you assign this bz and see if we can have a quick fix? Thanks. Actually, I don't think this is a real test blocker, we can install ipxe-roms-qemu to provide efi-virtio.rom, or set "rombar=0" property in the virtio-net-pci device, then qemu process can be started, although it will still prompt that the "efi-virtio.rom" file cannot be found(the file will not be used). So I can see all the tests of my auto job pass.

(In reply to lijin from comment #4) > Hi Alexander, > > This issue blocks all testings for qemu7.2, could you assign this bz and see > if we can have a quick fix? Remove testblocker keyword and adjust priority based on comment#5. And since this is not a test blocker any more. It's not so urgent, take your time, Alexander.
