The instructions are printed by "make -C roms help". We could teach roms/Makefile to either automatically fetch the sources (be that the upstream edk2 tarball or a qemu-firmware-src tarball should we go with the approach suggested by Daniel elsewhere in this thread), or throw an error with instructions when they are not present. take care, Gerd
