Make sure you aren't passing --noreboot or --wait timeout that is expiring. The way it's supposed to work is that the VM fully shuts down, virt-install changes the VM configuration to boot off the now installed disk, and restarts the VM. It does this by telling VM to shutdown rather than perform a soft reboot with <on_reboot>destroy</on_reboot> in the VM XML. It does this for all VM installs regardless of the OS. When the VM shuts down after install, virt-install should update the config, restart the VM, and exit. But clearly that's failing here - Cole _______________________________________________ virt-tools-list mailing list virt-tools-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/virt-tools-list
