Hi
I am trying to create a virtual machine and install Windows XP. I am
using Fedora 11.The system was last fully patched about an hour ago.
selinux is disabled.
I suspect from your output that you are using virt-manager. You might try just
doing the creation from command line and see if creating the image and running
kvm from cli works. That will help localize the part not working.
I have no problems running that way.
root@pc32 ~]# uname -a

When booting the virtual machine for the first time, the VM hangs with:
"Booting from hard disk". Nothing else appears.
When I shutdown the VM /var/log/messages has:
Sep 2 03:42:44 pc32 libvirtd: 03:42:44.714: error : operation failed:
could not query memory balloon allocation
... and a d ialogue box appears with the same message: here is the trace:
Traceback (most recent call last):
