Description Dor Laor 2010-08-18 12:48:20 UTC
Just use .63 kernel on the host (fully updated) with virt-manager and try to install the guest from ISO over LVM partition on the host using virtio-blk.

The install fails at the end with anaconda exception (will be attached).
I also tried qemu cmdline and it failed the same:
