I used the default settings in Virtmanager and created all the easy way, so I suppose that they are all raw. Looking at the xml files in /etc/libvirt/qemu, both the problem FC14 and the working FC13 vms have no type listed in the driver spec. The Winxp and a new FC14 instance (created last night and working fine) have a type listed as 'raw'. I don't know where else to look for the type. I just updated the host to Centos 5.6 on the weekend, and I restarted the machine then, and therefore, restarted the vms as well, and all three of the vms fired up. It was only when I updated the FC14 vm that I ran into the problem. -- http://www.fastmail.fm - A fast, anti-spam email service. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
