Inserting and ejecting ISO media
Space m i opens a picker with the ISO images found in your pools. Choosing
one inserts it into the domain’s CD-ROM drive with
virsh change-media … --insert, on the running domain and its configuration.
If the domain has no CD-ROM drive, virsh-tui offers to attach one.
Space m e ejects the current medium. From the : line,
:attach-iso <domain> <path> does the same with a path you type, with Tab
completion for the file name.
