I used "Add Hardware"--->Storage I checked the box "Select or create custom storage" and entered /dev/sr0. I used Device type CDROM Device and Bus type SATA. Even though "Source path" showed No media detected the CDROM was available in the VM when booted. FWIW, this is the xml created for the VM. <disk type="block" device="cdrom"> <driver name="qemu" type="raw"/> <source dev="/dev/sr0" index="1"/> <backingStore/> <target dev="sdb" bus="sata"/> <readonly/> <alias name="sata0-0-1"/> <address type="drive" controller="0" bus="0" target="0" unit="1"/> </disk> Screen shots available upon request. -- The key to getting good answers is to ask good questions. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
