Hey,
Some context around that.
Before recent commits, when we were producing qcow2 or raw images,
those were MBR images with an EFI partition. If the grub-bootloader
was used, then Grub was installed both in the post-MBR gap
and in the EFI partition. This means that a single image could be booted
with or without the qemu -bios option, i.e both in BIOS legacy
or in EFI mode.
Commit d57cab764122af69d52d8cc9c843456044e5d7bc changed the default
behaviour and the produced images were by default MBR images, without
EFI partitions.
I changed that with e5ed1712da049b1c3dcf01e0a7e02e48a8aff012 and
dfaeaae9c7e7283b99ad10aef3e61402e9820bc7 which introduced a new image
type called mbr-hybrid-raw, which is now the default image type,
restoring the previous behaviour.
Now it looks to me that what Ricardo is observing is not linked to any
of the changes mentioned above. When using the grub-efi-bootloader,
Grub is never installed in the post-MBR gap. This was already the case
in 1.4.0 and is still true. Those images cannot be booted without the
qemu -bios option unless I'm mistaken.
Hope it helps,
Mathieu

Ah, I remember tripping on this. GNOME Boxes can be built with ovmf
support and be able to boot with either a BIOS or UEFI bootloader but
bare QEMU cannot do so (and upstream appeared keen on keeping QEMU dumb
and keep the nicer abstractions for virtual-manager or GNOME Boxes
(maybe that's handled by libvirtd, I don't know).

Or a simple nudge to the reference in the info manual? This would avoid
duplicating the information (easing maintenance). I think there's a way
to format it so that it opens directly as a URL in Emacs at least,
though I don't know the details.

It=E2=80=99s due to the bootloader. This field from the bare bones template
works:
(bootloader (bootloader-configuration
(bootloader grub-bootloader)
(targets '("/dev/sdX"))))
but this from the desktop template doesn=E2=80=99t:
(bootloader (bootloader-configuration
(bootloader grub-efi-bootloader)
(targets '("/boot/efi"))))
The manual for =E2=80=9Cguix system=E2=80=9D gives a somewhat complicated i=
nvocation
that I only found out about later:
image=3D$(guix system image --image-type=3Dqcow2 \
gnu/system/examples/lightweight-desktop.tmpl)
cp $image /tmp/my-image.qcow2
chmod +w /tmp/my-image.qcow2
qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -hda /tmp/my-image.qcow2 -m 1000 \
-bios $(guix build ovmf)/share/firmware/ovmf_x=
64.bin
I haven=E2=80=99t tried it yet, but I assume that providing this extra =E2=
=80=9C-bios=E2=80=9D
option would fix it. It wasn=E2=80=99t necessary before, though, and I thi=
nk
it=E2=80=99s an inconvenient complication when running Guix VMs.
Perhaps an example invocation of qemu-system-* could be added as a
comment to the templates?

I=E2=80=99m trying to build a more recent VM image than 1.4.0. The 1.4.0 q=
cow2
image that=E2=80=99s available for download on the Guix website boots fine,=
but
any image created with a current Guix cannot be booted.
I=E2=80=99m on Guix commit be5bec47f7942a5e4d2a30eadd9a6fa4c715e88b.
I ran
./pre-inst-env guix system image -t qcow2 \
doc/os-config-lightweight-desktop.texi
to generate the VM image and then I used
qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm \
-m 4096 -monitor stdio \
-drive file=3D/tmp/guixvm.qcow2,id=3Dmyhd \
-vnc :1
and connected Remmina to :1.
The fan spins up to top speed and I see =E2=80=9CBooting from Hard Disk=E2=
=80=A6=E2=80=9D with
no progress whatsoever.
