Related, but maybe independent patch-wise: * do not add the ISO(s) from the wizard as IDE. > * cpumodel + cpuflags need to be architecture aware For reference: https://lore.proxmox.com/pve-devel/[email protected]/ (v2 because I had forgotten to adapt the endpoint for flags) > > other nice to haves not yet done, that also invovle changing the backend: > * 'virt' machine support in our api, so one can choose older versions AFAICT, this is already supported by the API? > * allow 'pcie' passthrough on 'virt' Nice work so far! :)
