I just wanted to follow-up to add that eventually, the virtual machine did start, and now "virsh list" works as expected. But it took nearly 30 minutes. The updated libvirt.log is shown below. Notice the huge jump in time, from 16:47 to 17:14. (Side question: it appears the timestamps are UTC, rather than my local time, any way to address that?) 2014-10-14 16:47:11.527+0000: 4668: info : virDomainLoadAllConfigs:14718 : Loading config file 'mythbuntu.xml' 2014-10-14 16:47:11.529+0000: 4668: info : qemuDomainSnapshotLoad:484 : Scanning for snapshots for domain mythbuntu in /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/snapshot/mythbuntu 2014-10-14 17:14:41.751+0000: 4668: info : virNetDevProbeVnetHdr:94 : Enabling IFF_VNET_HDR 2014-10-14 17:14:41.805+0000: 4668: info : virSecurityDACSetOwnership:296 : Setting DAC user and group on '/home/kvm/mythbuntu.img' to '107:107' 2014-10-14 17:14:41.806+0000: 4668: info : virSecurityDACSetOwnership:296 : Setting DAC user and group on '/mnt/mythtv1/mythbackend_recordings' to '107:107' 2014-10-14 17:14:42.084+0000: 4668: info : lxcSecurityInit:1380 : lxcSecurityInit (null) 2014-10-14 17:14:42.084+0000: 4668: info : virDomainLoadAllConfigs:14696 : Scanning for configs in /var/run/libvirt/lxc 2014-10-14 17:14:42.084+0000: 4668: info : virDomainLoadAllConfigs:14696 : Scanning for configs in /etc/libvirt/lxc 2014-10-14 17:14:42.089+0000: 4659: error : virFileReadAll:462 : Failed to open file '/proc/4836/stat': No such file or directory 2014-10-14 17:14:42.090+0000: 4660: error : virFileReadAll:462 : Failed to open file '/proc/8017/stat': No such file or directory 2014-10-14 17:26:34.679+0000: 4661: info : remoteDispatchAuthList:2398 : Bypass polkit auth for privileged client pid:11343,uid:0 On Tue, Oct 14, 2014 at 12:08 PM, Matt Garman <matthew.garman@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I followed the wiki[1] to create a KVM virtual machine using bridged > network on CentOS 6.5.
