We're going to ship the contents of the "roms" folder as a separate
tarball, so we should have at least a short README in this folder
for this.

+====================
+QEMU firmware images
+====================
+
+This folder contains the collection of sources for firmware (ROM / BIOS)
+images which are used for the various machines that are emulated by QEMU.
+See the individual sub-folders for more information like requirements for
+building and license statements.
+
+Pre-built binaries of these firmwares can be found in the "pc-bios" folder
+of the main QEMU source tree. It can be browsed online here:
+
+ https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/tree/master/pc-bios
+
+
+Building
+========
+
+The main Makefile provides some targets for building the various firmware
+images in an easy way. Run "make help" in this directory to get a list of
+available build targets.
+
+Note that you might need to install an appropriate cross-compiler for
+compiling certain targets first.
