not identify this piece of information, hopefully this thread will help
others that are newbies with kvm.

When you browse for an image using virt-manager, /var/lib/libvirt/images is the only location in which you can select image files without adding a new "volume."  The authors of the tutorials you read may have assumed that users would copy images to that location rather than adding a new volume.

You can help make those tutorials better by contacting their authors and suggesting that they mention that users should copy image files there.  I'm sure you're not the only person whose time could be saved by a helpful tip.
