Yeah, if that's the goal, skip all the mini-BIOS junk and just rely on a PV kernel in the guest.

I think a mini userspace that assumes that we can change the guest kernel and avoids having a ton of complexity to do things like CMOS emulation would be a really interesting thing to do.


Changing the guest kernel is a lot more complicated than writing a full BIOS or the legacy devices needed to support it. See Xen for an example.
