And Now For Something Completely Different... 3. On step 4 of 5 choose: Select managed or other existing storage ---> Click to Browse. ---> Select storage with 1.7 GB of free space ---> Click to New volume Create storage volume dialog box now contains: Format: qcow2 Storage Volume Quota VM's available space: 1.74 GB Max capacity: 1.0 -/+ GB I'm not able to choose more than 1 GB.

Indeed, thanks for the report. Moving to the upstream tracker since it's not a major issue
