I''m trying to install a F7 guest on a fresh F7 host. I get all the way through virt-install and then open the guest. I see a blip of text and then the screen goes blank and nothing further happens, no disk or CDROM activity, and certainly no install screen. After I ''shutdown'' and ''run'' I get.... HVMAssist BIOS, 1 cpu, $Revision: 1.38 $ $Date: 2005/05/07 15:55:26 $ ata0 master: QEMU HARDDISK ATA-7 Hard-Disk (16400 MBytes) ata0 slave: Unknown device Booting from Hard Disk Boot from Hard Disk failed: not a bootable disk FATAL: No Bootable device. Which I assume means that nothing got loaded to the guest. The same happens in text mode also. If, however, I use a Fedora Core 6 install disk or a Windows XP install disk, I can complete the install. I used the F7 install disk to build the host system and the media has been checked. I also tried NFS mounting the image from another machine.
