-* For a qemu >= 1.5 binary running *without* any "-M machine" option where\r
- "machine" would identify a < qemu-1.5 configuration (for example: "-M\r
- pc-i440fx-1.4" or "-M pc-0.13"), the iPXE drivers are automatically available\r
- to and configured for OVMF in the default qemu installation.\r
-\r
-* For a qemu binary in [0.13, 1.5), or a qemu >= 1.5 binary with an "-M\r
- machine" option where "machine" selects a < qemu-1.5 configuration:\r
-\r
- - download a >= 1.5.0-rc1 source tarball from <http://wiki.qemu.org/Download>,\r
-\r
- - extract the following iPXE driver files from the tarball and install them\r
- in a location that is accessible to qemu processes (this may depend on your\r
- SELinux configuration, for example):\r

- qemu-VERSION/pc-bios/efi-rtl8139.rom\r
- qemu-VERSION/pc-bios/efi-virtio.rom\r
-\r
- - extend the NIC's -device option on the qemu command line with a matching\r
