Hello. What's the possible way(s) to set OEM identification string in BIOS too, so that it provides ACPI tables with the given identification?
It is needed to support running OEM version of windows vista and windows 7 (for example) from /dev/sda without voiding its activation - this needs a real SLIC table plus the corresponding string other tables (FACP, FACS, -- I don't know for sure which other table windows checks, exactly). First is already available on the host system in /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/SLIC, and it's possible to use this table directly with -acpitable file=... after my patch for hw/acpi.c which I submitted today for qemu. The second component is missing currently, hence this my question. Thanks! /mjt
