Do you see the TianoCore splash screen? Does the grub2 menu appear? (2) I cannot reproduce the issue (with a different guest OS anyway); I just tried QEMU (at d1c82f7cc344) and OVMF (built from edk2 at 7cf59c854f35), with stdvga; this combo works fine. (3) Can you bisect QEMU from 2.7 through 2.8, using the same OVMF binary? (4) Side point: please *never* use "-bios OVMF.fd"; use two pflash chips instead. Libvirt (strongly recommended) will do this for you.

However, qemu works with a couple of different co= nfigurations: 1. "-vga cirrus" + "-bios OVMF.fd": works 2. "-vga std" + non-UEFI bios: works The same error with QEMU 2.8.0 release.
