Hello, hopefully this is something simple I just don't understand
how to
debug, but right now, it is keeping me from creating any new VMs. As
stated in the subject, I am running F10, on x86_64 arch. Libvirt
version is 0.6.1-5.fc10. Using virt-manager to create a new vm, when I
get to the step to create a disk image, I get the error:
'Storage parameter error. internal error storage pool is not active'.
Running
virsh pool-start default
gets me:
error: Failed to start pool default
error: out of memory
Note there is no reason my machine would be out of memory, is has 6GB
and nothing else running (and tried this right after booting)
virsh pool-list --all
shows default is inactive and 'yes' for autostart
I would be happy to file a bug if needed, but thought I would throw this
out to the list first to see if I was just unaware of some simple fix.
Let me know if there are other details I can provide to make this easier
to solve. Thanks,

Can you try the following:
su -
service libvirtd stop
libvirtd
Then from another terminal:
sudo virsh pool-start default
And see if anything more informative is printed in the 'libvirtd'
terminal: there may be a useful error that we are squashing somewhere.
Thanks,
Cole
