The boot order issue

   http://osdir.com/ml/libvir-list/2009-08/msg00398.html

resolved with the code changes specified by

   http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2009-August/msg00340.html

seems to suggest that hard disks, cdroms, floppy devices (since they are
all disks) are ordered primarily by virtual bus type as encountered in the
domain xml.  This indicates that there can exist a conflict between the
primary and secondary boot device types.

Given the scenario where the disks of a virtual server are defined in the
following order

      harddisk hda
      harddisk vda
      cdrom vdb
      cdrom hdb

Boot device type is crdom.  Which cdrom device will be boot attempted?
>From the above links, I'm guessing that hdb will be boot attempted. Is this
the actual behavior?


Thanks,
Yee
