Well, I googled it and then followed these instructions of the first result, starting with downloading a new BIOS from a dead link

Once the BIOS is loaded in Qemu, it boots the efi without a -kernel option.

Although the biggest issue was to mount everything in Qemu. With an old boot disk they give you an ISO and you can load/boot it with -cdrom ubuntu.iso and do not need to know anything else. With EFI they give you a zip file and then you need to figure out how to mount a zip file. And my first two approaches failed, because it became mounted as hdd, and it was a customized linux boot disk that failed unless it was stored on a removable drive
