# Testing pixiecore This is a braindump of the different hardware configurations that exhibit different behaviors. | Machine | Firmware | PXE firmware | Notes | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Proxmox VM | SeaBIOS | iPXE | | | Proxmox VM | OVMF | OVMF | Good UEFI baseline, many UEFI firmwares are derived from OVMF/TianoCore/EDK2e | | VirtualBox (OSS) | VirtualBox BIOS | customized iPXE | Cannot boot with `next-server` and `filename`, must be booted with iPXE-specific commands | | VirtualBox (w/ extension pack) | VirtualBox BIOS | Intel UNDI | Good BIOS baseline, Intel UNDI is the basis for many BIOS PXE firmwares | | VirtualBox (OSS) | VirtualBox EFI | ?? | Unclear what the EFI firmware is, but provides more diversity | | Dell R610 | Dell BIOS | Dell | The only bare metal machine I have right now with remote management. Strange custom firmwares, also a decent variety test. |
