Please provide a full command line so we are more likely to be able to reproduce the problem. Daniel Full command and output message are added.
# virt-install --name HVM_TEST --ram 350 --file /dev/sda8 --hvm --
cdrom /dev/cdrom --vnc --keymap ja
Starting install...
libvir: Xen error : Domain not found: xenUnifiedDomainLookupByUUID

Domain installation may not have been
successful. If it was, you can restart your domain
by running 'virsh start HVM_TEST'; otherwise, please
restart your installation.

What version of libvirt is used ? This could be a mismatch between the latest virt-install version (installed from an RPM ?) and an older libvirt which didn't have full support for it. Daniel The version is as follows. o Libvirt is got from CVS. --> Revision of Changelog is "1.766" o Virt-install is got from Mercurial. --> Changeset is "286:531b73491ac2" Both virt-install and libvirt are the latest versions. This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release. Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update release. Okay this was fixed upstream: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2007-November/msg00004.html Daniel libvirt-0.3.3-1.el5 has been built in dist-5E-qu-candidate with the fix Daniel An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on the solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below.
