<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?
There is certainly a lot of Xen fully virtualized config with <loader>/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader</loader>. But it sounds like your change makes the "only needed by" part invalid. I.e. <loader> is used by Xen fully virtualized domains as well as setting the QEMU BIOS file path for QEMU/KVM domains.
Thanks for your help :) - Chen
