The originating host (where I'm running virt-install) has SELinux in "Permissive" mode. The web server (192.168.1.117) had SELinux in "Secure" mode, so I changed it to "Permissive" mode. I don't think SELinux is started on the system being installed, but if someone knows how to set or confirm that, I'd be happy to be corrected. I'm not finicky about the path where the file lives, so I tried it with /var/lib/xen/images/hockey.img. The symptom is unchanged: stuck at minstg2.img. The revised command line is: sudo virt-install -n hockey -r 256 -f /var/lib/xen/images/hockey.img -s 4 --nographics --noautoconsole -l http://192.168.1.117/mirror/pub/fedora/linux/core/6/x86_64/os/ Thanks!

Uh, I must have somehow missed that you used virt-manager, not virt-install. Telling us exactly how you interact with either is fine. Telling us how you run virt-install is easier, though. > Trying virt-install, this is what my session looked like: > > sudo virt-install -n hockey -r 256 -f /xen/fedora/hockey.img -s 4 > --nographics --noautoconsole -l > http://192.168.1.117/mirror/pub/fedora/linux/core/6/x86_64/os/ > Password: This is an unusual image location.
