This is my command line, it's similar to one that worked for Debian etch

virt-install --name=Fedora7 --ram=384 --vcpus=2

--cdrom=/net/ns/var/local/mirrors/linux/Fedora/7/Fedora/x86_64/iso/F-7-x86_64-DVD.iso

Windows is fine
Debian's fine
ClarkConnect's fine
f7 took ages loading ata_piix4 (actually it was a little further than

I cam back and, to my pleasant surprise, it was at the "choose your
language" screen.
F7 for IA32 isn't going this well;-(

There's a screen shot at http://58.6.192.22/ia32f1.png
It's not yet switching to other consoles, I have no more info,
Here's the output from "xm top"
