You do not need to ask for a local connection, that is assumed. Here is an example: virt-install --noreboot \ --hvm \ --virt-type=kvm \ --pxe --name=008001-foo.com \ --ram=1024 \ --vcpus=1 \ --arch=x86_64 \ --uuid=4b5e0cc6-7366-4ca4-a581-10ea0c9f86f0 \ --os-type=linux \ --os-variant=rhel6 \ --disk path=/dev/mapper/008001 --network=bridge=br1,model=virtio,mac=RANDOM \ --vnc \ --vnclisten=0.0.0.0 \ --noautoconsole \ --wait=-1 With --noreboot and --wait, our script that calls virt-install can check exit status, virsh edit (via EDITOR=ed) xml files and then start them up. If you look at the python scripts, the os-type, os-variant, and arch set up a number of defaults. You should use them. We have centos-5.5, f13, ubuntu-10, windows-2k3, and windows-2k8 working well. Our group does not intend to test windows-xp again, and its been a year since we last did, so no help there. As for -c cdrom, that looks like a mess. We always install VMs over PXE now, so I cannot confirm the selinux issue, sorry.
