Hi all,

The current 'New VM' wizard has clearly started to show its age. The
original design was largely based on xen specific assumptions and the
state of libvirt/virtinst at the time: many of those assumptions don't
apply today, or require a bit more thought since we now support both xen
and qemu based VMs.

You can find a patch for a new implementation of the 'New VM' wizard here:

http://fedorapeople.org/~crobinso/virt-manager/newvm2/virt-manager-newvm-01.patch


I have to say I like this redesign. However I am missing two options in the wizard at all (and I missed them in the old one too). I would like to be able to just create a new machine and do not install anything on it and/or do not startup it. So I would like to see the install method "No installation" and an advanced option "do not start the VM now". There are situations when you do not want to start the VM right away. I can address both issues with installing from dummy ISO image (actually RIP linux :-) ) and stopping the machine, but I think it would be nice to have the options right in the wizard.
