This is not only a problem with LiveCDs, but also when an installation fails
or one wants to update a system, because there is no way to change or add a
CD to a virtual machine, like it is possible to add another harddisk or
network card. Is this within the scope of BZ 236782, too?
Not entirely - related, but different issues. We need to make it possible
to add a CDROM device to an existing guest:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=245205
And add ability to change CDROM media on the fly. There's a bug for this
too, but unfortunately its marked private.
