Hi Michaël, 
that would be great if you can provide us an how-to for that that we will integrate into the documentation !

>> 
>> The error seems to be: 'Cannot find SR of content-type ISO'. However, I've set a NFS ISO Library using XenCenter, so that there is an actual ISO content-typed SR. How to tell OpenStack to use this SR for the ISO images I post using glance?

>> Hi Michaël,
>>  
>> “Boot from ISO” should be ISO image agnostic.  The feature overcomes restrictions placed on the  distribution of modified Windows’ images.  People can use their ISO instead, but they may still need to use dedicated hardware. 
>>  
>> You should have no problem with a Linux distribution.

>> However, I wrote it for XenAPI, so we need someone to duplicate the work for KVM and VMWare.

>> Hi all,
>> 
>> I'm very interested in the "Boot From ISO" feature described here: http://wiki.openstack.org/bootFromISO
>> 
>> In a few words, it's about the ability to boot a VM from the CDROM with an ISO image attached. A blank hard disk being attached to install the OS files in it.
>> 
>> I've got some questions about this:
>> 1. Is the feature available today using a standard Diablo install? I've seen the code about this feature is stored under nova/tests and glance/tests. Does this mean it isn't finished yet and could only be tested under specific conditions? Which ones?
>> 2. the spec tells about a Windows use case. Why just Windows? What should I do to test with a Linux distribution?
>> 3. I can see here that the Xen hypervisor only has been impacted by the source code changes. Are KVM and VMWare planned to be supported in the future? May I help/be helped to develop KVM and VMWare support for this 'Boot From Iso' feature?
>> 
>> Any help appreaciated
