virtual machine (or 'guest').
+
+VM booting is controlled by setting one of the two mutually exclusive
+groups: "PV", and "HVM". If HVM.boot is the empty string, then paravirtual
+domain building and booting will be used; otherwise the VM will be loaded
+as an HVM domain, and booted using an emulated BIOS.
+
+When paravirtual booting is in use, the PV/bootloader field indicates the
+bootloader to use. It may be "pygrub", in which case the platform's
+default installation of pygrub will be used, or a full path within the
+control domain to some other bootloader. The other fields, PV/kernel,
+PV/ramdisk, PV/args and PV/bootloader\_args will be passed to the
+bootloader unmodified, and interpretation of those fields is then specific
+to the bootloader itself, including the possibility that the bootloader
+will ignore some or all of those given values.
+
+If the bootloader is pygrub, then the menu.lst is parsed if present in the
+guest's filesystem, otherwise the specified kernel and ramdisk are used, or
+an autodetected kernel is used if nothing is specified and autodetection is
+possible. PV/args is appended to the kernel command line, no matter which
+mechanism is used for finding the kernel.
+
+If PV/bootloader is empty but PV/kernel is specified, then the kernel and
+ramdisk values will be treated as paths within the control domain. If both
+PV/bootloader and PV/kernel are empty, then the behaviour is as if
+PV/bootloader was specified as "pygrub".
+
+When using HVM booting, HVM/boot specifies the order of the boot devices}} \\
