If creating a volume as part of the process of launching the VM, select <code>Boot from image (creates a new volume)</code> select the image to use and the size of the volume. The default device name of <code>vda</code> should work well. If this volume is something you would like to remain longer than the VM ensure that the "Delete on Terminate" check box is unchecked. If you are unsure about this option, it is better to leave this box unchecked as you can always manually delete the volume later as an extra step. | If creating a volume as part of the process of launching the VM, select <code>Boot from image (creates a new volume)</code> select the image to use and the size of the volume.
