[one-users] mount cdrom to a running vm

[Tino Vazquez]

Dear Upendra,

That is an interesting functionality request. I've opened a ticket [1]
to keep track of this, we will evaluate it and include it in next
releases.

Meanwhile, a possible workaround would be to use the RAW attribute
(see last section of [2]), to specify a <disk> without a source
attribute.

Regards,

-Tino
