Hi there,
How do I get a working xml for mips64el guest when using virt-manager?
The host system is running Ubuntu, but I believe that this is the right
list for things relating to libvirt.
It errors with:
---------------------------------------------
Unable to complete install: 'this function is not supported by the
connection driver: 'mips64el' architecture is not supported by CPU
driver'
Traceback (most recent call last):

This is what I'm trying to use:
