Currently, when I select "Create from YAML", I get a Fedora-based yaml pointing to kubevirt/fedora-cloud-container-disk-demo:latest containerdisk. With RHEL-8.4 out, we finally have a registry.redhat.io/rhel8/rhel-guest-image containerdisk. Let us use it to propose a supportable VM. We should doublecheck that it works well with ssh key injection, since RHEL guest do not support password auth for ssh. Alternatively, we can use "ssh_pwauth: yes" in cloud-init of the example vm.
https://github.com/openshift/console/pull/8980 is related to this bz, but only remotely. The request here is to modify https://github.com/openshift/console/blob/master/frontend/packages/kubevirt-plugin/src/models/templates/vm-yaml.ts#L58 (and similar places) with a RHEL8 yaml
Note for verification: When running OKD, the image stays fedora when running OpenShift, the image will be rhel8
It's using RHEL 8 as example VM on 4.8.0-fc.5.
