Hi All, I just tried to create a DomU using the following method... (I normally use the Xen install kernel when I create CentOS domus, but when I tried that with the PXE image, that had the same effect as below). This is the first time I have created a Fedora domu in ages... years, even. virt-install \ --paravirt \ --name demo \ --ram 500 \ --file /xen/demo.img \ --file-size 6 \ --nographics \ --location http://mirror.ox.ac.uk/sites/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/11/Fedora/x86_64/os/ Whilst it worked, I got no chance to set any packages and I ended up with a pretty empty domu, with no networking, etc. In fact, examining the console I don''t get much in the way of output, compared to me CentOS domu''s. PCI: Fatal: No config space access function found IO APIC resources could be not be allocated. Welcome to Fedora Press ''I'' to enter interactive startup.

I am afraid this didn''t help. I used a mirror on another DomU, as I don''t have a webserver running on Dom0 ( ;o) ). However, I tried using the VNC install option, as presented by the installer and that allowed me to configure what I wanted and a seemingly okay vm resulted, so I would say there is a bug in the non-graphical/non-vnc installer of Fedora 11. I still don''t get all usual the kernel output until it got to the interactive part, but that may be normal on Fedora 11.

It brings f11 install directly to VNC mode. and works for me on daily basis.
