virt-install-1.1.0-12.el7.noarch
Steps are the same as description above.
Then try to verify with new build:
virt-manager-1.2.0-4.el7.noarch
virt-install-1.2.0-4.el7.noarch
Steps:
1.Check virt-xml manual,check EXAMPLES part,there is an example about --boot menu=on
EXAMPLES
……
# Enable the boot device menu for domain 'example':
# virt-xml example --edit --boot menu=on
2.Check all --boot options. Menu exists on --boot options.
# virt-xml --boot ?
--boot options:
arch
cdrom
clearxml
domain_type
dtb
emulator
fd
hd
init
initargs
initrd
kernel
kernel_args
loader
loader_ro
loader_type

network
nvram
nvram_template
os_type

3.Check --boot menu option:
# virt-xml rhel6.7 --edit --boot menu=on
Domain 'rhel6.7' defined successfully.
Results:
Step 1, In virt-xml manual,the --boot option in EXAMPLE part is menu.
It is consistent with the --boot options listed on Step 2.
According to the result above in the latest version of virt-manager, move this bug from ON_QA to VERIFIED.
