I'm using virt-manager to create a ppc virtual machine and when it actually gets run, it's using x86_64. I do have the ppc parts installed: [root@tessellate qemu]# rpm -qa | grep ppc openbios-ppc-1.0-0.6.svn463.fc11.noarch qemu-system-ppc-0.10.4-4.fc11.x86_64 [root@tessellate qemu]# I can choose a qemu ppc machine in the GUI but the xml file gets populated with x86_64 choices. Is this supposed to work?
What virt-manager version are you using? My guess is you are seeing bug 499145. Closing as a dup of that, please reopen this one if I'm wrong. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 499145 ***
