That's what I'm going to try out next. It would still be nice to be able to
install a paravirtualized debian using virt-manager/virt-install though.
I actually managed to find out the correct install URL in the sources:
http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/
With that url virt-install retrieves kernel and initrd but after creating
the domain the VM just panics during the kernel initialization.

Hi,
I'm trying to setup a paravirtualized Debian Lenny on a Centos 5.3 host.
With the virt-install that comes with centos/rhel I was only able to install
it using HVM and then paravirtualizing it afterwards.
Now I have compiled more recent version of libvirt and the management tools
that support installing Debian Lenny directly but I'm wondering what URL I'm
supposed to specify? With centos/rhel I use the path
/(...)/centos/5/os/x86_64/ but Debian Lenny apparently uses a different way
to organize it's repositories. What would the correct url parameter be for a
Lenny 64 bit install?
Regards,
Dennis
