ESXi 6.7.0 - how use UEFI Shell on passthrough graphics card

  • 1.  ESXi 6.7.0 - how use UEFI Shell on passthrough graphics card

    Posted Nov 20, 2023 09:39 AM

    I created a WinXP 64-bit VM EFI with passthrough the PCIe AMD graphics card (GOP firmware).

    I connect via VMware Workstation 10 (Connect to Server ...)

    The Guest OS works with both graphics cards - AMD (Primary) and VMware SVGA II (Extend Desktop).

    I can go to UEFI Shell but only when using the SVGA VMware card

    How to run UEFI Shell using the AMD card?

    Why can't the AMD GOP firmware (driver) be seen in UEFI Shell?

    In UEFI Shell on the host there is AMD card GOP driver.
