It seems non-root users can't write to this directory (/var/lib/libvirt/images) so some root action needs to be taken either at the command line level to move the downloaded iso, or by launching Nautilus or Konq or what have you as root. Neither I think is a very good UI path. Why can't virt-manager copy it for the user, or allow the user to load an iso located in their home directory? This seems like our OS is fighting against itself here. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating
