Description of problem: "Locating installation media" page has two URL fields: Install media URL,and an optional kicksart URL. Is there a way of minimizing the amount of URLs that need to be entered here? Will it have history of previous URLs that you have typed here? (it's not quite as bad as anaconda since at least you can copy and paste from a browser window) In particular, can there be: - an option to install from local media? (autodetected, so it knows if you have a CD/DVD in the drive) - for RHEL, knowledge about RHN or the satellite server you installed from, and give the option to select a distro/kickstart from this server? One feature of RHN is the ability to store kickstart profiles: https://rhn.redhat.com/rhn/help/reference/rhn410/en/s1-sm-systems.jsp#S2-SM-SYSTEM-KICKSTART Should they be displayed here? I can't see a way of doing this via the API: https://rhn.redhat.com/rhn/apidoc/ (though I guess the API can be expanded) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): virt-manager-0.2.3-2.fc6

Sorry to file RHEL-specific stuff under Fedora; maybe this bug should be split up and the RHEL part moved to a new bug under the correct "Product"?
We already have plans to add support for remembering the last 'N' URLs entered. In theory we could support install of CD, but there is no way to change CD's when the guest VM is running in paravirt guests, so for now that'll probably lead to more problems that it solves. So, for this bug we'll address the URL history. Could you enter a separate bug for RHN integration - it is something that'll need much more thought/investigation to decide to best way to approach it.
Added URL history to both fields
Fixed in rawhide in build virt-manager-0.2.5-1.fc7
