> The 64bit hardware does no longer support V86 mode. This mode was intended to allow 32 bit operating systems to run 16 bit applications, i.e. DOS applications. I know. But I'm not sure if UEFI run under 32b PM or 64b long mode on modern boards. If it would run 32b (switch to 64b later when starting OS) there would be chance to setup v86 mode and still use UEFI API (insted writting all from the scratch). > Writing a Hypervisor that uses VT-X is really a lot of development since you have to virtualise just about anything. I evaluated an alternative Hypervisor just to see how much is left to implement to make it usable. I don't know much about VT-X abilities but you mean it allows to run 16b programs with something like RM? What alternative hypervisors you found?
