Exactly. But if gPXE rom is loaded,
hvmloader cannot load some option ROMs of raal PCI cards.
I suspect we don't use F10 option for PXE boot.
Do you have good idea?
Not really. Perhaps scan_etherboot_nic() after pci_load_option_roms(), so the
latter takes priority?
Another possibility is to let option ROMs load up to 0xe9000 rather than
just 0xe0000. There's nothing in the range 0xe0000-0xe9000 right now; it's
36kB of wasted space.
OK. I'll try to use the range 0xe0000-0xe9000.
The range seems to be OK in BBS spec.
