Description of problem:
[RFE] UI: It would be better if pop-up warning msg when user install rhevh to USB live CD.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhev-hypervisor-6.2-0.5.el6

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set up USB stick as live CD image.
   #livecd-iso-to-disk --format ./rhev-hypervisor.iso /dev/sdb
2. Boot from USB, select install rhevh to other device: /dev/sdb
3. Complete the installation, it will fail.
4. Boot from USB again.
  
Actual results:
After setp3, rhevh installation failed, can't open /dev/sdb1 exclusively, failed to pvcreate on /dev/sdb1.
After step4, boot from usb will fail.

Expected results:

Such as: '/dev/sdb' is image media; skipping.

In Rhevh5.7, when user configure storage partition, system will give below info:
" '/dev/sdb' is image media; skipping".

I'm tempted to nack this since the other device option is considered an advanced option and we assume that the user knows what they're doing when try use it.

Comment 3 Alan Pevec 2011-07-22 22:08:39 UTC

Yes, there isn't checking in Other Device entry by design.
