Description

Hello,

Using ONE 4.6.1 with the following template:

TEMPLATE 3 INFORMATION
ID             : 3
NAME           : Install ISO EOLE 2.4.0 (amd64)
USER           : oneadmin
GROUP          : oneadmin
REGISTER TIME  : 05/27 11:20:57

PERMISSIONS
OWNER          : um-
GROUP          : ---
OTHER          : ---

TEMPLATE CONTENTS
CONTEXT=[
  NETWORK="YES",
  SSH_PUBLIC_KEY="$USER[SSH_PUBLIC_KEY]" ]
CPU="1" 
DISK=[
  IMAGE="IMG-20G",
  IMAGE_UNAME="oneadmin" ]
DISK=[
  IMAGE="ISO-eole-2.4.0",
  IMAGE_UNAME="oneadmin",
  TARGET="hda" ]
GRAPHICS=[
  KEYMAP="fr",
  LISTEN="0.0.0.0",
  TYPE="VNC" ]
INPUT=[
  BUS="usb",
  TYPE="tablet" ]
MEMORY="512" 
NIC=[
  NETWORK="CR_admin",
  NETWORK_UNAME="oneadmin" ]
OS=[
  ARCH="x86_64",
  BOOT="hd" ]

works on Precise Pangolin but not on Trusty Thar.

It looks like the qemu-kvm on Trusty (2.0.0+dfsg-2ubuntu1) does not fallback on second drive when the first is not bootable.

The workaround I found is to add a RAW section to my template to add a second boot device.

RAW=[
  DATA=" 
        <os>
                <boot dev='cdrom'/>
        </os>
",
  TYPE="kvm" ]

I see two possible solution:

  1. transform OS=[BOOT="<TYPE>"] to a list
  2. add an attribute to each disk to mark them bootable, ONE could generate the boot list accordingly

Regards.

BOOT accepts a comma separated list of boot devices.

It's working when editing the template with the CLI or in “advance mode” in sunstone.

Is it possible to reopen this request to transform the fixed list in sunstone to a list of checkboxes?

Regards.
