Dear Mateusz & All,

I tried a lot but looks like I am not able to figure out.

Again the VM says "No bootable device" gpxe searching for bootdisk from
HDD/Floppy/DVD-CD" etc.

But it is running fine from frontend mode "virt-viewer -c qemu:///system
myvm3"

I tried to virtually mount the iso in the CD drive but that too did not
help.

I have also tried the interactive setup: virt-install --prompt  --> that
too does not work when I instantiate in OpenNebula VM.

I have also tried to write the template in Advanced Tab in OpenNebula
following [1] but I am failing.

Regards,
Sudeep
