Hi folks.
i want to discuss this bug:
https://github.com/kimchi-project/kimchi/issues/564
We are being asked to list more than only ISO for template creation,
because libvirt supports other volumes to create a VM.
My propose is to add a checkbox for select the format, because showing
all supported formats at the first time will pollute the screen.

The problem is: libvirt treats an ISO file as format 'raw' instead of
'iso' for some storage pool types because that those file are not listed
for the template creation.
We could scan the file using isoinfo.IsoImage to verify it is an ISO
file - but it will take too much time to scan each file.
My propose is to add a checkbox for select the format, because
showing
all supported formats at the first time will pollute the screen.
If user selects to create a template using an ISO file the only support
type is ISO.

Shall we enable a user-label function to let users label a
storage
volume as ISO if he knows it is a valid one. And then shallow scan can
scan volumes with this label for distros, and can present it in template
creation page?
