Is there a method of tweaking the boot sequence of a KVM instance so that you can delay
the process for X number of seconds? I don't have enough time between starting the KVM
and connecting via VNC.
Thanks

You might consider using virt-viewer. It simply waits for domain to
boot, if it is down.
Your other option is to create hook script:
http://libvirt.org/hooks.html
and put conditional sleep there, because libvirt just before running a
domain tries to execute qemu with some arguments (e.g. -help) to qeury
its capabilities. And you don't want your hook script to delay that.
So you need something like this:
if [ $2 == "start" ]; then
sleep 5
fi
Thanks
Jeff

That looks useful.
On several Ubuntu systems, with Ubuntu libvirt 0.8.8 and 0.8.3 packages
installed, there's no libvirt/hooks/ directory at all. Is this a directory
that can simply be created and used under libvirt, or does using this
feature on Ubuntu require custom installation?

Yes. But you might need to restart
libvirtd.

Is there a virt-viewer for Windows?
