那个binary文件是不是就是真正的Bios文件？要是的话，直接拿修改bios文件的工具修改以后再替换以前的文件应该就可以了？以前非award的bios就是先修改文件，然后再把bios刷进主板。网上教程一大堆，楼主可以看看:Angel:

在编译，安装完后，有/usr/share/kvm/bios.bin生成，就不是编译前的那个binary文件了。我用windows的bios工具看了，这个简单的bios中是没有DMI信息的，就是说还不支持。看来没戏了。但，网上，有人成功的修改了vmware的bios, 应该是host系统应该是windows xp.

如果只是为了用这两个软件，下个精简版的deepin xp装好了，虚拟文件占地方还小

支持正版。我们用linux的一个目的之一是不用盗版，用深度的话，这个初衷就废了

在虚拟机里这样用也算不得正版吧

我问了一下kvm的mailing list, 应该较快会支持。

Hi, guys,

My Thinkpad T60 came with an authentic windows xp,  but the version is
for IBM/lenovo only, the Windows XP need to read bios DMI to match the
vendor name and manufacture Name to be activated. I dont want to buy
another M$ window xp for KVM, just what to change the bios info to
meet the check, is it possible?

Thanks, Rgds
Walter

Currently, no. But we need DMI support in the BIOS anyway (so 32-bit
Linux guests can use ACPI), so watch this space.  I expect support to be
added soon.
