[ovirt-users] Issues with vm start up

[Shanil S]

Hi Omer,

Thanks for your reply.

We are deploying those VM's through templates and all the templates has
first boot from hard disk and second with cdrom. We are using cdrom in
cloud-init section to insert the cloud-init data .Why we need this boot
loader (VM boot order or in the cloud-init section) as in the template the
first boot order is harddisk ?
