Need to create a VM that runs from its bootable iso. No storage required.

Can't find any option to not create a hard drive for it. Something I'm not seeing?
 
hi,

no such option on the GUI but shouldn't be hard to implement. you can add a feature/enhancement request on our bug tracker [0]

in the meantime you can just create it with a small disk, detach & remove the disk after the wizard is complete (go to the "Hardware" menu of VM)

Will do, thanks.
 
I needed the same and got around this today by simply creating a VM with a 1GB disk, and after creation, immediately detach and delete the disk.
Just in case someone still looks at this.
