The above-mentioned idea just corresponds to the state before correction. Although Windows may be unique compared with other OS's, the user can enough continue installation by using xm block-configure. > On a side note, we really need a 'xm block-configure' equivalent API in > libvirt, so that we can do CDROM media changes from the virt-manager GUI > and virsh, for both KVM & Xen. I think so, too. Thanks, Nobuhiro Itou. _______________________________________________ et-mgmt-tools mailing list et-mgmt-tools@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/et-mgmt-tools
