antsle support

Kirk,

When you imported the .iso in the antlet details > Virtual Drives tab, did you check the 'Add as CDROM' check box?
And the .iso's are bootable installation or live cd/dvd's?
And you are using the 'blank' template when creating the antlet?

We can check the xml of the antlet with the following command from the antsle's command line (ssh to the antsle or use show console in antMan):

virsh dumpxml ANTLET_NAME

replacing ANTLET_NAME with the name of your antlet.

So here are the sections we are interested in:

Near the top we will see the boot devices. Here we want to see the 'cdrom'

<os>
    <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-i440fx-2.4'>hvm</type>
    <boot dev='cdrom'/>
    <boot dev='hd'/>
</os>

And we also want to make sure the path to the .iso file is correct in the cdrom disk section:

<disk type='file' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2'/>
      <source file='/antlets/cdtest/Blank.qcow2'/>
      <target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
      <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</disk>
<disk type='file' device='cdrom'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
      <source file='/antlets/cdtest/antsle:volumes/systemrescuecd-x86-5.1.2.iso'/>
      <target dev='hdb' bus='ide'/>
      <readonly/>
      <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='1'/>
</disk>

In this case my antlet name is 'cdtest' and using a systemrescuecd iso in the 'cdrom'
you can make sure the .iso file is in the correct location by listing the contents of the 'antsle:volumes' directory.

ll /antlets/cdtest/antsle:volumes

replace with the path listed in your xml output
