[ovirt-users] VM "Operating System" Type -- No Love for CentOS or Fedora?

[Beckman, Daniel]

Fedora is different from RHEL in far more significant ways than Lubuntu is different from Ubuntu. Lubuntu (and Kubuntu, Xubuntu) runs a different desktop GUI but shares much of the architecture with Ubuntu; Fedora runs a different kernel than RHEL. Good try though. ☺

It's probably because CentOS and Fedora are both under the Red Hat umbrella of operating systems the same way that Kubuntu and Lubuntu and others are under the Ubuntu umbrella.

When you edit the “operating system” type of a VM under the General section, there are a plethora of operating systems listed, including FreeBSD, Debian, SUSE, and older variants of Ubuntu. But there are two glaring exceptions: CentOS and Fedora. Is this by design?

It’s worth noting that plain KVM, vSphere, and just about every other VM platform supports these (Red Hat sponsored) operating systems. But not oVirt. Why?

Sincerely confused,
Daniel
