Summary

I'm currently training for RHCSA. I have to install few servers with KVM.

I'm unable to select the DVD drive to install the OS (greyed out). While I can install by other means, I'm curious to know why I can't this way.

My setup

That's the tricky part.

My KVM host is a VMware Workstation guest.

The DVD is correctly mounted in OS, I can browse it from GUI and CLI.

Question

Why am I unable to chose DVD Drive ?

Is it because of the nested Virtualization ?

Is it some security setting in KVM ?
