-Boot firmwares are loaded via secure FLASH0 device so ``bl1.bin`` and
-``fip.bin`` should be concatenated to create a ``flash.bin`` that is flashed
-onto secure FLASH0.
+An alternate approach to deploy a full system stack on QEMU is to load the

+The ``-bios`` option abstracts the loading of raw bare metal binaries into flash
+or ROM memory. QEMU loads the binary into the region corresponding to
+the hardware's entrypoint, from which the binary is executed upon a platform
+"reset". In addition to this, it places the information about the kernel
+provided with option ``-kernel``, and the RamDisk provided with ``-initrd``,
+into the firmware configuration ``fw_cfg``. In this setup, EDK II is responsible
+for extracting and launching these from ``fw_cfg``.
+
+.. note::
+    QEMU may be launched with or without ACPI (``-acpi``/``-no-acpi``). In
+    either case, ensure that the kernel build options are aligned with the
+    parameters passed to QEMU.
