Bug Description

Binary package hint: virt-manager

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a VM with a network interface (I tried with several types)
2. Select the network as a boot device
3. Boot the VM

Instead of showing something like "looking for a PXE server", the BIOS errors with "No bootable device"

This was working last time I tested it (19/02/2010)
