Also there is no other way to set different hw_vif_model than via Glance's image. I'm facing the problem where I have a Windows instance from a different virtualization environment and I have to set hw_vif_model to e1000 and I can't install virtio drivers and without it all I got is blue screen. I need to boot that instance from a volume and I can't because during nova boot I can't specify the hw_vif_model and when I created that volume from an image, that property was not preserved.
Is there any way to somehow set that property in instances booted from volume? Maybe in nova? or in cinder?
