A new libvirt release 0.2.3-1.fc7 will shortly be available in Fedora 7 Updates-testing yum repository. Please upgrade to this version when available, run 'service libvirtd restart' and then try to create the virtual machine again. This should give you improved error reporting in the UI, and failing that also create a log file in /var/log/libvirt/ with full info.
I am having same error with libvirt-0.3.0-1.fc7. I tried to create virtual machine out of Kde4Live and then Win Xp Home Sp2. Both gave me same error. I dont have log file, directory you provided is empty.

Error from #2 seems completely unrelated to this bug. As the log shows the /home/InIrudeBwoy/Publiczne/WinXP_Home_SP2_ENG/VMWinXPHomeSP2 path specified for the install is not found by Xen when starting the domain. Can the author of the bug report check with package libvirt-0.3.0-1.fc7 available in Testing ? Make sure to stop libvirtd service before the upgrade and restart it after, or simply reboot the machine after the upgrade to make sure the new daemon is in use. Daniel

Most likely blocked by SELinux since the file was under /home instead of /var/lib/xen/images. Please re-open if this wasn't the problem & you have the info reuqest from comment #3.
