Hello,

Is this still required? I see that qemu-2.5 has support for booting El
Torito .iso images, and it boots Debian off virtio block drives just
fine.

Granted, it looks like debian packaging strips the s390 firmware file,
and doesn't rebuild it. Maybe that should simply be fixed and that's
it?

Regards,

Dimitri.
