Hi libvirt:
--------
My "short" question is - is there a recipe for installing F19 100% automatically with static IPs? I'm using a combination of url based install with a kickstart script pasted to a gist in order to bootstrap the entire thing.
It **used** to work (fedora16), but recently stopped.
-------
Note : Right now Im not using the os-variant switch because fedora17+ arent listed as OS variant's in my version of virt-install. That in and of itself could be the problem -- any way to update virt-install's os-variant list?
------
With Fedora 16, I found that the url based install failed due to a corrupt rpm. I assume this is just because f16 isn't supported anymore so errors on the web site for it are not being fixed.
With Fedora 18/19/... Im finding other types of errors related to missing downloaded components when the bootstrapping virt-install starts. In particular, a 404 (not found) error when fetching " product.img " from the OS url. Details below.
<note, any insights into things I may be missing due to ignorance would also be appreciated here>
--------
With Fedora 18:
I've noticed that libvirt gives me some errors with the new generation of fedora formatted os's source directories. It looks for a file "product.img", which (I beleive) doesnt exist in fedora17+.
.
virt-install --hvm --name f18x86_64a --ram 1024 --file /var/lib/libvirt/images/f18x86_64a.img,size=20 --location
