May be. Either way, I added -c qemu:///system, nothing changed.

There are 2 scsi drives - one is HDD, the other one is DVD. HDD is: -device scsi-hd,bus=scsi0.0,channel=0,scsi-id=0,lun=0,drive=drive-scsi0-0-0-0,id=scsi0-0-0-0,bootindex=2 -drive file=/home/aik/virtimg/Fedora-18-ppc64-DVD.iso,if=none,id=drive-scsi0-0-0-1,readonly=on,format=raw DVD is: -device scsi-cd,bus=scsi0.0,ch The second one is cut, "ch" is not a valid parameterer name. Furthermore when I add a machine with "virsh -c qemu:///system create lalala.xml" (and I have boith scsi devices in that xml), both parameters are passed to QEMU as is and it all works. >>>> The second question is - where does virt-install store those xmls?
