Description Pavel Hrdina 2017-09-05 13:43:36 UTC 
When the guest XML uses the old boot syntax

  ...
  <os>
    ...
    <boot dev='hd'/>
  </os>
  ...

virt-manager incorrectly marks all disks as bootable  in the "Boot Options" pane in guest details window.  That's not true, only the fist disk is bootable in this case.
