Re: [PATCH 0/4] Add support for dual bios + efi disk generation

[Henning Schild <henning.schild@siemens.com>]

This in fact is a very cool feature with minimal porting effort, the
"fork" from the original from OE is really just naming to call out
sub-plugins for bios and uefi.

What you get are USB sticks that "just work", and VM images that just
work. We have been using that in downstream layer for a long time.
