Description Daniel Berrangé 2012-02-24 16:58:37 UTC 
Description of problem:
When Oz fails it tries to take a screenshot of the guest. All the screenshots I've seen have just been a black screen. This is because the guest OS has not had any mouse or keyboard input during install & thus has blanked the screen.

Oz should use virsh send-key (or equivalent) to inject some key presses to wake up the screen. eg just send a couple of 'Shift' keys, and wait 1 second before taking the screenshot.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
oz-0.7.0-3.fc16.noarch
