Change distro in the output formally known as virt-inspector to reflect the actual distro. Possible values are now: fedora, rhel, centos, scientific, debian. Add new distrofamily entry which is one of: redhat, debian. Currently all distros except 'debian' are in the redhat family. This allows you to, for example, select a RHEL/CentOS/Scientific Linux specific kernel for installation

It turns out that the distribution hierarchy is not as reliable concept as you might think. This patch removes distrofamily again. Instead of distrofamily, we will add feature tags. This patch adds 2 feature tags for Linux distributions: package_format (eg rpm/dpkg) package_management (eg rhn/yum/apt) This change is reflected in the output of virt-inspector --- inspector/virt-inspector.pl |

List, Now that Centos 6 is here, virt-install fails to launch an install for a C6 xen domU. The virt-install script is part of libvirt and is in package: python-virtinst.noarch the script, OSDistro.py, has a path hard-coded for a rhelX or centos VM install. IOW, ./images/xen is appended to the provided mirror URL to get the kernel/initrd.img pair needed for a netboot. Centos 6 repos

I am pretty new to using solaris''s xvm. I booted my sol dom0 and attempted to create a one of the linux pre-built domU''s.

Since the GUI virt-manager doesn''t seem to offer NFS as an option, how could I start an install via NFS using the GUI or from the command line? Perhaps I need to have a CD in the drive or something?

I was slightly too quick off the marks with the first patch. This updated patch modifies all of virt-inspector's output types to take account of distrofamily.
