*Should* this work?
Using the pre-built OVMF-x64-r15214 and an MS Win7 Ultimate clean ISO. The vm boots, I see the Tianocore EFI telling me my memory is fine, Win7 installer loads and I get the wooshy coloured blobs which do there stuff right until the logo is nearly formed and then HANG...guest unresponsive and I have to force reset/poweroff. I've read that Win8 works fine and installs with OVMF but as there are no functional Spice Guest Tools I need Win7. Legacy boot is fine, just wondering if my config is crap or that actually this shouldn't/doesn't work?
Libvirt XML for my guest is...
