Description of problem: Creating a new VM doesn't work (Windows XP) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): virt-manager-0.6.0-1.fc10.x86_64 libvirt-0.4.6-3.fc10.x86_64 python-virtinst-0.400.0-1.fc10.noarch How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. select localhost in main virt-manager screen 2. New -> Forward 3. System Name: winxp 4. Fully Virtualized, x86_64, kvm -> Forward 5. Local install media, OS Type: Windows, OS Variant: Windows XP -> Forward 6. ISO image location: /var/lib/libvirt/images/en_winxp_pro_with_sp2.iso -> Forward 7. Simple file, 10000MB, no allocation now -> Forward 8. Network all default -> Forward 9. Memory and CPUs all default -> Forward 10.

Okay, we weren't refreshing the directory/storage pool contents to reflect reality, so you were trying to create a file. Fixed upstream: http://hg.et.redhat.com/virt/applications/virtinst--devel?cs=f117c8243aa5 I'll build this into rawhide shortly. Thanks for the report.
Built in rawhide.
