UEFI for QEMU now in Fedora repositories

Fedora, Fedora Planet, Fedora Quality Planet, Testing, Tools 1 Minute

I haven’t seen any announcement, but I noticed Fedora repositories now contain edk2-ovmf package. That is the package that is necessary to emulate UEFI in QEMU/KVM virtual machines. It seems all licensing issues having been finally resolved and now you can easily run UEFI systems in your virtual machines!

I have updated Using_UEFI_with_QEMU wiki page accordingly.

Enjoy.
