Hi Slavka,

This ISO is just the iPXE template because we deploy our VM automatically.

Since we deploy Windows and Linux i have to upload it twice? Once categorized 
with Linux, the other time with Windows?

But since i want to have the same behaviour as with our old cloudstack, which 
is /dev/sdX naming for the root device, Windows is the way to go, correct?

I will try it out. Thx for your help!

But cloudstack has to be changed in order to get a vm created with UEFI boot 
and an other OS than the named ones.

At least an error must be shown when using UEFI boot with a template 
categorized Other and deployed on KVM.
