[Bug 634756] Re: pci_add_option_rom: failed to find romfile "pxe-virtio.bin"

[Dustin Kirkland]

Right, so the message is a benign warning:
  pci_add_option_rom: failed to find romfile "pxe-virtio.bin"

If you're not trying to boot your VM over pxe-virtio, then you can
safely ignore the message.

If you want to boot over pxe-virtio, or you want to silence the error message, simply:
  sudo apt-get install kvm-pxe

This could be solved by either:
 a) MIR'ing kvm-pxe and adding a qemu-kvm-common recommends on kvm-pxe
 b) patch qemu-kvm to silently ignore this condition

I think (a) would be desirable for Natty.  Doubt this would make
Maverick, though.
