So I recently replaced the motherboard and CPU from my previous Proxmox build. I did a fresh install of Proxmox 8.2 and am in the process of migrating my VMs over. I went and created a new VM matching the settings to that of what I was migrating. Once the VM was created I copied the .qcow2 files over the ones made for the VM. When I attempt to boot it though I am getting an error "kvm: combined size of system firmware exceeds 8388608 bytes". This appears to be associated with using the OVMF for the bios, but when I switch it to SeaBIOS it's unable to find the boot record, which makes since since it was an UEFI install. The OVMF used machine q35-6.1, but even selecting that I get the firmware error. Not sure if there is a bug with that or not or maybe where to go from here.
New hardware and VM fails to start

you are right i havent think of that, so my only chance is to clone the system out of the vm (if it is not arm64 os) or make a backup of the configuration of the system (this is a HA that i want to migrate) and restore it in a fresh install of HA. AM i right?
