This article is a howto for activation-ready of Windows.
SLIC 2.0 is for 2003 & XP, and 2.1 for Win7 & 2008
Original seabios reads slic table from exactly the host. However, if your motherboard(not OEM) happen to own none, you will most probably make one by your self.
Seabios
You could get the lastest code from here.

Or, you can download from here.

Compile
You don’t have to apply the seaslic patch with patch.sh, you can do that by hand.
Before you start, do this:
|
1 |
xxd -i /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/SLIC | grep -v len | sed 's/unsigned ch ar.*/static char SLIC[] = {/' > seabios.submodule/src/acpi-slic.hex
|
Or,
|
1 |
xxd -i DELL.BIN | grep -v len | sed 's/unsigned ch ar.*/static char SLIC[] = {/' > seabios.submodule/src/acpi-slic.hex
|
After applying the patch, you can compile the bios.bin, and copy that to /usr/share/qemu-kvm/my-bios.bin or rewrite bios.bin instead.
Here’s my bios.bin with Dell[DELL-QA09-NVDA]2.1.BIN from SLIC BIN
Qemu-cmd
|
1 |
qemu-kvm XXX -bios /usr/share/qemu-kvm/my-bios.bin -acpitable file=Dell[DELL-QA09-NVDA]2.1.BIN
|
In the guest, you could see that SLIC by /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/SLIC in Linux or SLIC_Toolkit in Windows.

Already fixed.
Thank you for this post and the explanation…
and even more thank you for attaching your bios.bin! Saved my day today!
Cheers.
My pleasure.
