Description Zeeshan Ali 2013-11-26 22:50:00 UTC 
Description of problem: In libosinfo (the library used by Boxes and soon virt-manager too), we make use of volume-id on the ISO to identify which OS it belongs to. While RHEL6 ISOs seem to have a proper proper volume-id on them that helps us identify the OS but there is no way to identify the variant (workstation or server). Would be nice to have that information on them as well. RHEL7 ISOs already has this info in their volume-id.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 6.4

How reproducible: always
Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2013-11-29 23:46:57 UTC 
This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
