still using it, but we can stay with our existing koan and just not upgrade
- RHEL5 virt-install doesn't had --disk driver_type= for qemu_driver_typecobbler option. Not as big of a deal, users just can't specify that value onRHEL5.I don't think Cobbler users ever specified anything other than the default.But in that vein, currently all koan image/qemu/xen guest creation is brokenon any RHEL5 since October, due to unconditional use of guest.set_autostartAPI which isn't in RHEL5.That's interesting as it does seem to confirm that nobody is using it.Which seems to align with my thoughts that:(A) people don't upgrade too often(B) the field is still largely VMware :)So, yeah
hrmph.. well i was about to upgrade to latest in epel (my production systems are on 2.0.11)
so is this working or broken in 2.2.1 ?
