Thomas Huth 102fe52165 man/virt-install: Add a note about different behavior of --boot on s390x 
It is common on x86 and other architectures to install a guest from
network by using "--boot hd,network" with virt-install - as long as
the hard disk is not bootable yet, the installation will be started
via network, and once it finished, the guest can boot from hd during
the next reboot.

However, this does not work on s390x since this architecture only
supports one single boot device to be passed to the guest. Thus add
a note to the documentation to avoid that people are running again
into this common pitfall.

Virtual Machine Manager

virt-manager is a graphical tool for managing virtual machines via libvirt. Most usage is with QEMU/KVM virtual machines, but Xen and libvirt LXC containers are well supported. Common operations for any libvirt driver should work.

Several command line tools are also provided:

  • virt-install: Create new libvirt virtual machines
  • virt-clone: Duplicate existing libvirt virtual machines
  • virt-xml: Edit existing libvirt virtual machines/manipulate libvirt XML

For dependency info and installation instructions, see the INSTALL.md file. If you just want to quickly test the code from a git checkout, you can launch any of the commands like:

./virt-manager --debug ...
