Bug Description
I have a laptop computer which runs rhel7. I want to install ubuntu ppcle64 in a virt-manager virtual machine, but I can't do this directly because rhel7 doesn't have a new enough qemu to be able to run ppc virtual machines. So I install opensuse tumbleweed in a virt-manager virtual machine. Then I try to install ubunto 20.04 for ppcle64 in this virtual machine (again under virt-manager). When I do this, open firmware in the virtual machine gives an error "Not a bootable device".
I think this is a fault with Ubuntu, not a fault with Tumbleweed or RHEL7.
I will attach a screenshot of the problem.

I get the same failure trying to install an OpenSUSE Tumbleweed virtual machine. I have reported that bug here https:/ /bugzilla. opensuse. org/show_ bug.cgi? id=1165706 .
