Hello.
My current problem is, i want to start a VM with a bootloader and a
corresponding bootorder (device-map).
The basic api for defining a BOOTLOADER within a ONE-template is not
sufficient to achieve this.
The desired values are shown in the following virsh-template:
...
<currentMemory>512000</currentMemory>
<vcpu>1</vcpu>
<os>
<type>hvm</type>
<loader>/usr/lib/xen-3.2-1/boot/hvmloader</loader>
<boot dev='hd'/>
<boot dev='network'/>
</os>
<clock offset='utc'/>
...
I tried to use the RAW[]-section, to put in some values to test it. It
didnt work either.
(http://www.opennebula.org/documentation:rel1.4:template -> RAW Section)
Im currently fighting to compile libvirt with ONE-drivers so i may just
use my old virsh-template and only using ONE for the deployment.

Does anyone of you have some ideas how to integrate the BOOTLOADER
"options" (device-map) shown above, or a way to workaround?
[Goal: The usage for this is to achieve the possibility to start a
network install (pxe/nfs), reboot, and then boot from new partitioned
harddisk
with a new system on it.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Martin
