Description Michael DeHaan 2009-04-01 16:47:26 UTC

Description of problem:

As seen here:  

https://www.redhat.com/archives/et-mgmt-tools/2009-March/msg00100.html AND 

https://www.redhat.com/archives/et-mgmt-tools/2009-April/msg00002.html

if I create a Virtual Disk in virtinst using the correct device type and the path to a disk ISO, the libvirt XML is generated to picks the wrong device file and the install cannot continue (/dev/hda is not a floppy drive).

I need this to do scripted Windows installs (ISO+fullvirt+answer file on floppy) from cobbler+koan.

Fix is here:

http://hg.et.redhat.com/cgi-bin/hg-virt.cgi/applications/virtinst--devel/rev/fd4baa6410d8

It applies just fine to the latest rawhide version, so maybe a good cherry-pick candidate

Comment 2 Cole Robinson 2009-04-09 15:20:53 UTC

Okay, build into python-virtinst-0.400.3-5.fc11. Closing as RAWHIDE.

Comment 3 Michael DeHaan 2009-04-09 15:36:23 UTC

Can you also see that this is fixed for F10?

Comment 4 Cole Robinson 2009-04-09 16:04:34 UTC

Sure, just built it. 0.400.3 hasn't been pushed to stable yet, but I will likely do that next week.

Comment 5 Michael DeHaan 2009-04-09 17:09:47 UTC

Thanks!!!
