Bug Description

Binary package hint: virt-manager

There should be an easy way to choose the boot device. The installation image/device is chosen when creating the client, but it's only used once.

virt-manager (0.5.3-0ubuntu7) hardy; urgency=low

  * Add patch from upstream to make it possible to choose boot device (LP:
    #182050).
  * Make the overview screen show which local qemu session, you're connected to.
