Cole, I forgot to mention a second variation in functionality with today's update of python-virtinst. Earlier today I could choose my "Connect to host network" either virtual or shared physical device - which showed "peth0" in the drop down box. Later today their was no longer the drop down box item to use - although I still have a "peth0" defined. thanks, brian On Tue, 2008-03-04 at 16:02 -0500, Cole Robinson wrote: > Brian L Scipioni wrote: > > I just updated my python-virtinst > > (python-virtinst - 0.300.2-1.fc7.noarch.) > > > > I had been experiencing the famous problem of the CD-ROM device being > > dropped during a xen install of WinXP. > > > > After the update I noticed that the "path to install media" option > > button was greyed out and no longer available.
