Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Not a problem as such, simply the capability not yet present. Casting my vote for a future enhancement, cannot currently see any similar feature request, apologies though if duplicating.

Describe the solution you'd like To be able to select OVMF (UEFI) bios-based machine when creating vm with the plugin. In accordance with proxmox requirements on disks, to create a EFI disk accordingly. To be able to manage/change SCSI ID of EFI disk as appropriate - when creating machines using proxmox interface you can untick the "create EFI disk" option and add a disk manually afterwards. We do this to arrive at a uniform SCSCI id numbering for all vm disks.

Describe alternatives you've considered Changing machine properties afterwards through proxmox interface. Unknown if a subsequent "build" or parameter change through the foreman plugin might affect the bios parameters.

Additional context Just favour UEFI over BIOS for modern builds where possible.
