I don't think you will be able to do what you want to do without some qemu wrapper script. There's some hints here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/HowToQemu#Using_QEMU_with_libvirt The plan is to make this all 'just work' in libvirt + virt-manager, but no time table yet. - Cole _______________________________________________ virt-tools-list mailing list virt-tools-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/virt-tools-list
