Could not find an installable distribution at
''/home/xen/iso/ubuntu-9.04-server-amd64.iso''
Domain installation may not have been
successful. If it was, you can restart your domain
by running ''virsh start Ubuntu904Server''; otherwise, please
restart your installation.
Greetings community,
I run virt-install to create a new domain, and after answering the
questions it asks, it throws this error :
Wed, 07 Oct 2009 11:22:47 ERROR Could not find an installable

I have manged to install from this way before (once), but now it is refusing.
Any ideas on what I should be looking for to fix the problem.
I have chmod`d the directories containing the iso file to 777, I have
placed just the directory location (without the .iso file) and still
nothing.
Any suggestions or pointers to online references to fix this would be
highly appreciated.
