Comments/Problems:
I have an HPVM with Net, Disk, and a DVD ISO on host mapped as a DVD
drive
It appears as though the loader didn't hang but expected a GUI , had to
pass boot options to EFI loader
to tell it to use cmd line Debian install
EFI Shell> fs0:
fs0> bootia64 linux console=ttyS0
Or upon [Install} you can put Boot Option (linux console=tyS0 ) in
there..
Am able to get in-memory kernel from DVD but Debian installer wont see
CDROM emulation..
I will try this on native HW to see if it works..
