Hi Guy, Anyone know how we can set up the vnc password during using virt-install command ? # virt-install \ --connect qemu:///system \ --name demo \ --ram 500 \ --disk path=/var/lib/libvirt/images/demo.img,size=5 \ --network network=default,model=virtio \ --vnc \ --cdrom /dev/cdrom Regards, Peter _______________________________________________ libvirt-users mailing list libvirt-users(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users

Seem like there is no such option, or could my option place it incorrectly ? root@cloudnode2:~/new# cat virt-install.sh vm_uid=testvm vcpu=2 ram=512 diskspace=10 path=/home/source/ubuntu-10.04.2-server-amd64.iso #virt-install -n $vm_uid --vcpus=$vcpu -r $ram -f /root/new/disk0.raw -s $diskspace -c $path --accelerate --connect=qemu:///system --vnc --vnclisten=0.0.0.0 --noautoconsole -v virt-install -n $vm_uid --vcpus=$vcpu -r $ram -f /root/new/disk0.raw -s $diskspace -c $path --accelerate --connect=qemu:///system --vnc --graphics vnc,password=testing --noautoconsole -v root@cloudnode2:~/new# root@cloudnode2:~/new# root@cloudnode2:~/new# sh virt-install.sh Usage: virt-install --name NAME --ram RAM STORAGE INSTALL [options] virt-install: error: no such option: --graphics root@cloudnode2:~/new# Regards, Peter Cheng
