20.16.9.12. Specifying boot order

To specify the boot order, use a management tool to make the following changes to the domain XML:


  ...
  <devices>
    <interface type='network'>
      <source network='default'/>
      <target dev='vnet1'/>
      <boot order='1'/>
    </interface>
  </devices>
  ...

Figure 20.49. Specifying boot order

For hypervisors which support it, you can set a specific NIC to be used for the network boot. The order of attributes determine the order in which devices will be tried during boot sequence. Note that the per-device boot elements cannot be used together with general boot elements in BIOS boot loader section.
