Thanks very much for the help! Unfortunately I did try that previously and was still dumped into the efi shell. Looking round again, I didn't build my OVMF with secure boot enabled. Going to see if I get any joy rebuilding with secure boot support. thanks again On Tue, Mar 22, 2016 at 3:35 AM, Andrea Bolognani <abologna@redhat.com> wrote:

Have you tried deleting the *VARS.fd in /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/nvram and changing the 'template' attribute so that it points to the *VARS.fd file you should have in your edk2 source tree, eg. the one matching the OVMF.fd you're using to boot?
Not sure if that would help, but it's definitely worth a shot :)
Cheers.
