Don't create the file manually - let virt-manager do it for you - it will give you option to specify the desired size & location > Then I set the /home/jane/xen/box1 as the storage space to install my > guesting OS. I chose Fedora COre 6 again as my guest os. The problem is: > When the installation comes to selecting disk partition part, there is no > available drive there. I print the screen and attached the picture. There is no drive because you created a zero byte file. Let virt-manager create it, in addition it needs to be under /var/lib/xen/images rather than /home.
