Description of problem:

(17,33,35) atodorov: bpeck: can you help me with figuring out why beaker doesn't use HTTP install method for VM guest when specified
(17,34,02) atodorov: bpeck: see https://beaker.engineering.redhat.com/jobs/502123 and the job XML
(17,34,26) atodorov: I tried to specify HTTP as install method in 2 places both for the host and guest OS
(17,34,50) atodorov: however guest keeps trying to install via NFS and that currently breaks due to other reasons, so I'm trying to make it use http
(17,35,17) atodorov: I have both ks_meta="method=http" and <distro_method op="=" value="http"/> but no luck
(17,35,35) atodorov: is this Beaker or the test case ? 
(17,37,14) bpeck: gozen_, ^^ Can you look into this.  the kickstart looks good.  But virt-install is still passing nfs location
(17,38,42) bpeck: atodorov, it is related to the virt-install task
(17,40,39) atodorov: gozen_: ^^^
(17,44,38) bpeck: atodorov, distro_method doesn't do anything any more
(17,44,51) bpeck: should be removed from workflows
(17,46,23) gozen_: bpeck, ugh, i thought it was just what was passed on to virtinstall test 
(17,46,28) gozen_: let me look
(17,49,13) gozen_: bpeck, it looks to me that's what beaker gives.
(17,49,16) gozen_: http://beaker-archive.app.eng.bos.redhat.com/beaker-logs/2013/09/5021/502123/1055197/15835711/80117716/test_log--distribution-virt-install-install_system1.log
(17,49,25) gozen_: Guests info:rn1055198 system1 52:56:00:00:00:0b nfs://nfs-01.eng.brq.redhat.com:/pub/fedora/linux/development-snapshot-20130924/20/x86_64/os/ http://beaker.engineering.redhat.com/kickstart/469206 --kvm -s 8 -r 1024
(17,50,17) bpeck: gozen_, hmm ok.  
(17,50,19) gozen_: ./get_guest_info.py > ./tmp.guestsrnecho "Guests info:" | tee -a $OUTPUTFILErncat ./tmp.guests | tee -a $OUTPUTFILE
(17,50,29) bpeck: atodorov, it does look like an issue with what beaker is giving virt-install
(17,51,03) gozen_: and get_guests_info.py only queries the lab controller for the recipe.
(17,51,05) bpeck: atodorov, can you open a bz?
(17,56,18) atodorov: bpeck: sure

Due to #1011177 this is blocking Fedora 20 VM guests testing. Please fix ASAP.
