Description Mark McLoughlin 2009-06-08 13:43:46 UTC 
Created attachment 346871 [details]
virt-manager-0.7.0-to-sparse-or-not-to-sparse.patch

virt-manager-0.7.0-5.fc11.x86_64

In virt-manager's 'New VM' dialog leave 'Allocate entire disk now' option checked and notice that the disk is created with VirtualDisk(sparse = True)

Attaching a fix

Not a big deal, right now, since virtinst currently ignores the flag - see bug #504604
