Good point. I'm not sure why I can't get VMware to boot coreboot configured
for Qemu. It fails before there is any output with the message:
The CPU has been disabled by the guest operating system. You will
need to power off or reset the virtual machine at this point.
Since when I boot into Linux with their BIOS /proc/cpuinfo shows my laptop's
processor, I thought this must be part of the problem. Maybe it's not.
