Hi Osier,
The debug log from virt-manager wasn't that helpful.
[Thu, 02 Jun 2011 11:32:26 virt-manager 5104] DEBUG (engine:496) Starting vm
'rpmbuilderbase'.
[Thu, 02 Jun 2011 11:32:37 virt-manager 5104] DEBUG (error:76) Uncaught
Error: Error starting domain: internal error Domain rpmbuilderbase didn't
show up
: Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/engine.py", line 498, in
run_domain

File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/domain.py", line 573, in startup
self.vm.create()
File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 287, in create
if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainCreate() failed', dom=self)
libvirtError: internal error Domain rpmbuilderbase didn't show up
The log in /var/log/libvirt/qemu is a little bit more useful but I don't
really understand it. Can someone please explains it to me?

Boot device 'c' was given twice
Is the message "Boot device 'c' was given twice' a fatal error? If so
what
is the correct action to resolve the issue?
Thanks!
David

virt-manager has debug log, ~/.virt-manager/virt-manager.log.
And you can check libvirtd log too, by default, it's /var/log/messages,
change "log_outputs" in /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf if you want it logs
somewhere else.
Change the "log_level" in /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf if you want to
see more log.
Perhaps detailed log will help you find out the problem.
