<dd>The optional <code>loader</code> tag refers to a firmware blob used to assist the domain creation process. At this time, it is only needed by Xen fully virtualized
Is the sentence "only needed by Xen fully virtualized" valid even now?
I'm not familiar with XEN... Anyone can help? Thanks, - Chen
For example, the support for UEFI firmware has also been introduced, which can be easily used by extracting bios.bin from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/jejb1:/UEFI/openSUSE_12.2 /x86_64/OVMF-0.1+r14742-1.1.x86_64.rpm and passing its path under the <loader> option.
