[pve-devel] Design Question for ISO Images

Hi Seth,

No. Please note that each storage appears in the resource tree. When can select
one you can see the contents in the 'Content' tab. I guess we need an upload 
button there.

I do not really understand that question?

No.

Many thanks for testing!
