Thanks. I set log_level and log_outputs to log everything and write it to a file. I ran the virt-install command again and saw this output: Starting install...

But I'm not sure if that's related to why QEMU crashes later on. [1]: http://odin1.pehjota.net/~pj/servers/libvirtd.log -- Patrick "P. J."
