How I did it

For extracting the vBIOS I used the 1st method in Linux and edited it.

You can add anything that you consider useful like the step needed in your distro for installing everything. The more information, and solutions, the better.

Files to modify

`scripts/windows.sh`

My GPU uses one more Kernel Module so I have to add it as the first module to unload and the last to load:

# Unload the Kernel Modules that use the GPU
modprobe -r nvidia_drm
sleep 1
...
------------------------
# Reload the kernel modules. This loads the drivers for the GPU
...
modprobe nvidia_drm
sleep 1

I use PulseAudio so I had to kill it for detaching the GPU.

## Kill X and related
pulseaudio -k
---------------------
# Reload the Display Manager to access X
...
pulseaudio --start

I don't pass a USB controller so I had to add manually USB devices.

# Remove
...
echo $usbid > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/vfio-pci/new_id
sleep 1
echo $usbbusid > /sys/bus/pci/devices/$usbbusid/driver/unbind
sleep 1
echo $usbbusid > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/vfio-pci/bind
sleep 1
echo $usbid > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/vfio-pci/remove_id
#ls -la /sys/bus/pci/devices/$usbbusid/
sleep 1
...
-device vfio-pci,host=$IOMMU_USB \
...
echo $usbbusid > /sys/bus/pci/devices/$usbbusid/driver/unbind
echo $usbbusid > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/xhci_hcd/bind
sleep 10
...
----------------------
# Add to the QEMU script
...
    -object input-linux,id=kbd,evdev=/dev/input/by-id/usb-HOLDCHIP_USB_Gaming_Keyboard-event-kbd,grab_all=on,repeat=on \
    -object input-linux,id=kbd2,evdev=/dev/input/by-id/usb-HOLDCHIP_USB_Gaming_Keyboard-if01-event-kbd,grab_all=on,repeat=on \
    -object input-linux,id=mouse-event,evdev=/dev/input/by-id/usb-Logitech_G700_Laser_Mouse_6B5EFC4B0035-event-mouse \
    -object input-linux,id=kbd3,evdev=/dev/input/by-id/usb-Logitech_G700_Laser_Mouse_6B5EFC4B0035-if01-event-kbd,grab_all=on,repeat=on \
...

I use an image instead of a hard drive.

# Remove
    -device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi0 \
    -device scsi-hd,bus=scsi0.0,drive=rootfs \
    -drive id=rootfs,file=$HDD,media=disk,format=raw,if=none
-----------------
# Add
	  -device ide-drive,bus=ide.1,drive=rootfs \
	  -drive id=rootfs,if=none,file=$IMG,format=raw
