Description of problem:
[RFE] UI: It would be better if pop-up warning msg when user install rhevh to USB live CD.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhev-hypervisor-6.2-0.5.el6

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set up USB stick as live CD image.
   #livecd-iso-to-disk --format ./rhev-hypervisor.iso /dev/sdb
2. Boot from USB, select install rhevh to other device: /dev/sdb
3. Complete the installation, it will fail.
4. Boot from USB again.
  
Actual results:
After setp3, rhevh installation failed, can't open /dev/sdb1 exclusively, failed to pvcreate on /dev/sdb1.
After step4, boot from usb will fail.

Expected results:
Pop-up warning message when user install rhevh to USB live CD.
Such as: '/dev/sdb' is image media; skipping.

Additional info:
In Rhevh5.7, when user configure storage partition, system will give below info:
" '/dev/sdb' is image media; skipping".
Comment 2 Mike Burns 2011-07-22 17:26:29 UTC 
I'm tempted to nack this since the other device option is considered an advanced option and we assume that the user knows what they're doing when try use it.
Comment 3 Alan Pevec 2011-07-22 22:08:39 UTC 
Yes, there isn't checking in Other Device entry by design.
