I was doing a : # virt-install --connect qemu:///system -n vm10 -r
512 --vcpus=2 -f /vm/vm10.qcow2 -s 12 -c /dev/cdrom --vnc
--noautoconsole --os-type windows --os-variant winxp64 --accelerate
--network=bridge:br0 --hvm
when I got the error.
# qemu-kvm

Booting from CDROM...
Boot Failed: Could not read from CDROM (code 0003)
No bootable device.
I guess I'm going to have to make a bootable CD with the Windows files
on it.
How does one do that ??
I'm not I sure understand what you're trying to do.
Running qemu-kvm without the required parameters (image files, cdrom,
network devices) will not work.
Sadly enough, I cannot really help you with virt-manager (you might want
to ask the good people at fedora-virt). Never the less, calling qemu-kvm
directly requires a long list of parameters...
