extra text field for VGA ROM in VM advanced options

[lionceau]

Hello,

 

Many systems require a GPU dump to be specified so VM GPU passthrough works without Error 43 as described in this video:

It would be nice to have an (optional) text box/file picker box for this in the advanced VM PCI passthrough settings GUI so we don't have to copy-paste this into the XML whenever we change a VM setting.

 

The XML tag is <rom file='/mnt/user/path/file.dump'/>

Great suggestion and something we do have planned for future inclusion.  We may even add an option to dump the ROM from the GPU using a webGui control, but that one is probably a little further out.

plus 1 from me

 

if it can be a dropdown showing the available dump files in a default location, in same way it's done for the virtio or isos
