Hi,
I didn't succeed to install an FC7 guest on a FC7 host using virt-install with nographics (the same operation with a FC6 was successfull).
In the installation process, I've got first an error : libvir: Xen Daemon error : GET operation failed:
and after a while, the installation hangs up.
ANy idea please ?

Greetings, Luc,
Two things:
1) Your dom0 F7 machine can't be runing Selinux in Enforcing mode. There's a denial related to udevd trying to load a kernel module that's a problem. You can confirm this by looking for avc messages in /var/log/messages if you don't have auditd loaded, or /var/log/audit/audit.log if you do. I reported this problem to the Selinux people so they're aware of it. Edit /etc/selinux/conf and set SELINUX to permissive.
2) Your guest may very well be running, despite the nographics setting. If you have a head on your dom0 machine, try turning on the --vnc option and see what happens. If your dom0 is headless, redirect any X output to some other machine that has a head (set DISPLAY, xhost, etc). Run your virt-install, and see if the graphical console of your guest pops up. It did for me, even though I didn't expect it to. Turns out that when booting, the F7 guest console output starts on on the serial line, and finishes up with the graphical console. I posted what to do about this to Fedora-xen a week or so ago, so check the archives.
Good luck,
Mike
