Cole Robinson 5e48307e9d virtinstall: Set VM name earlier so disks are named correctly
We need to change the flow from

  * parse all the strings
  * set capabilities defaults
  * build installer
  * fill in all guest defaults

To

  * parse boot and metadata strings
  * set capabilities defaults
  * build installer
  * set --name default
  * parse all the remaining strings
  * fill in all guest defaults

Because --disk parsing depends on --name for some path generation.
So this fixes --disk names when --name is implicitly specified by
--install or --osinfo

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 ...
