Hi Vish,

I will work on this block_device_mapping enhancement if there are no other
guys working on this.

      Vish,

      Many thanks for u comments, but as you know to support windows
      sysprep image, we need save the unattend.xml in the CDROM or C:\
      device. So, we want to extend the config drive to attach a CDROM
      device when launch VM.

      Anyway, I think attach a CDROM when launch new VM is a common
      requirement, right?



Sounds like we need some modifications to allow for an attached cd-rom to
be specified in block_device_mapping.
