Cole Robinson ba24d877bf createvm: Remove 'Network boot (PXE)', add 'Manual install'
For the dialog flow, these options are the same, the only effect
is that there's no longer an initial network boot phase.

PXE is dependent on an external server setup that is not common
in the scheme of things, so giving it a first class option on the
front of the new VM wizard isn't really sensible. Users that want
to PXE boot can easily do so via the 'customize before install'
option, or just manually create a VM and edit the boot device as
they see fit.

Explicitly advertising a Manual option is nicer for users that
just want to create a VM and deal with install later, among many
other minor use cases.

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 ...
