GPU Passthrough issues

Your way of passing the romfile doesn't look right either. Please use exact format and bear with me.

hostpci0: 0000:01:00,pcie=1,rombar=0,romfile=Yourrombios.rom

By passing the rom file, and then use Display=Virtio-gpu during installation of the driver, you should see your screen light up (Virtio-gpu is your main, and then your GPU monitor is 2nd screen) If after installation of the driver, the screen doesn't light up, try other DP or HDMI ports.

Once the GPU as 2nd screen works ok. Reboot it and check if it works ok. Once it's working properly, you can change it to primary.

I have passed my romfile exactly as you described it before but it didn't work.

I'll try this again tho, thank you.

Sorry, mate. I actually did a research online. Looks like both Nvidia 5000 and AMD 9070 series have some sort of reset bug. (And I thought we would no longer worry about reset bug for good, but here we are. )

And the black screen issue (driver related) did somehow happen to other people bare metal too. But you said the same driver works ok for you. So I guess your version of driver is actually working ok. Looks like there might require some special tweaks for this newer type. The good thing is you are not alone.
Hopefully someone will share a working config soon.

Yeah, unfortunately I stumbled across a few forums talking about this issue too. What a bummer, I sure hope this gets fix soon.
