You can see my libvirt patch for an example of the sort of thing which is needed. I can't speak for IanJ but I'm pretty busy with various things, including the libvirt flight for osstest. I can probably look into doing seabios at some point though. > > There is a method to easy and fast have working dns/dhcp/tftp enough to > > osstest? > > > > DNS/DHCP/TFTP are generanl IT infrastructure, not part of OSSTest.

At home i use dnsmasq which is pretty simple and provides at least the first two (DNS+DHCP) I think it can do TFTP too but I tend to us the regular tftpd on a difference host for various tedious reasons...
