[RFE] Present a catalogue of installer/live medias
Last modified: 2018-01-11 10:13:51 UTC
Created attachment 298100 [details] Mockup of the proposed idea. Attached is a mockup for a proposal on how the catalogue would look like. The idea is to save the user the additional steps. Some things to consider: - Default catalogue. If it'd up to me I'd offer these with the most common/supported variants: * Fedora * Ubuntu * CentOS * Debian * FreeBSD - Customized catalogues. An organization might want to have their own catalog for their users, it's worth thinking about how can we provide additional or overriding catalogues to the default one without having to repackage Boxes. - I would merge this with the URL based image selection so no need for an additional section in the UI. - Caching. It'd be very handy to have a cache of the most common images, the tricky bit is how to allow the user to manage this cache so that they can effectively take control over how much space they have available. The mockup is intended to act as a wireframe I quickly put together, I'd love to have feedback from the design team on interaction and actual vusial design.
I would really like to have something like this. Completion in the url field is really not how I would expect to have well-known options presented.
