Hi Paulo,
Ramon is working on a patch to change the way the Templates are created.
It will replace 'cdrom' and 'disks[base]' parameters to
'source_media'
I have talked to him to do something like:
source_media: {type: disk/netboot, path: <source-media-path>}
To create a Template based on disk (cdrom or base img) the type=disk and
a path must be specified.
To create a netboot Template, only the type is required.
That way we don't need to mix things in the 'cdrom' parameter as you did
with this patch.
The API will be as I described above (Ramon let us know if I am missing
something) so if you want, you can change this patch accordingly or work
on top of Ramon's patch.
Regards,
Aline Manera

This patchset adds support in backend to create templates and guests to netboot
without setting a cdrom path or URL as image to install. Once created a guest
to boot via network, the guest will request DHCP/TFTP/(NFS/HTTP/FTP) network
installation servers to download the configured images and start the install.
To test, use the curl commands:
curl -k -u test -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H \

-X POST -d '{"name": "test-netboot"}'
