    Are there any gotchas with rEFInd and QEMU/KVM?
    I get two lines "Loading Boot0001 rEFInd.." and then nothing, just hangs.
    Tried in normal graphics mode and textonly, same result.

    Not sure how to troubleshoot this further, thanks.

    I'm also experiencing this issue. Some info:
    Host: Arch Linux, linux 5.6.11.arch1-1, GNOME 3.36.2, Boxes-Devel flatpak
    Guest: Arch Linux, boots without any problems with GRUB

    Since no one offered any assistance, and this was just a means to learn more about EFI in general, I completed my testing using Virtualbox instead. The VM has now been deleted, and I have moved on.

    @Ignacy good luck.

    Are you able to get UEFI boot on Virtualbox? Last time I checked there was not a way to have that work consistently.

    As far as KVM goes; if you are using libvirtd; then this page might be useful; but I have not set it up myself. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Using_UEFI_with_QEMU
