 Question - if it is work under construction, the above may or may not
 show any VGA output? i.e. black screen
 
 Or give it a whirl, and I may surprise myself?
 
 Or stick with

The logs you sent me seemed to indicate that SeaVGABIOS was running,
and thus you should use the steps above.

 The logs you sent me seemed to indicate that SeaVGABIOS was running,
This means use vgaroms/seavgabios.rom

and leave commented parts in a commented state - no need for
pci8086,0a06.rom parts

  and thus you should use the steps above.
