I am working on implementing network config & network .iso discovery On s390x, when using virt-install, do you really want to configure networking at all or do you want it to simply dhcp, self-find the right iso, download that and attempt booting that? Or do you still want interactive experience

I think that's a brilliant question. I can go on explaining that how we build & publish the new thing, is unlike how we build and publish the old thing, and that it's all a bit non-trivial, but literary that's all irrelevant from the virt-install users' point of view. We are discussing subiquity
