Just copy the xml file manually into /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/ , then put a 
symlink to it in /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/autostart/ .

Create the network on an existing system then check out those directories to 
see how it's set up.

Subject: How to configure a libvirt network in %post (virsh fails due to 
libvirtd unable to run)

Hi,

I am trying to do something like this in the %post section of the kickstart 
file for my F16 workstation:

# setup libvirt network
cat > /home/patrick/Downloads/vmr.xml <<EOF <network> <name>vmr</name> <forward 
mode='route'/> <bridge name='virbr1' /> <ip address='192.168.198.1' 
netmask='255.255.255.0'> </ip> </network> EOF

# make sure libvirtd is started
service libvirtd restart

# add the network
virsh net-define vmr.xml
virsh net-start vmr
virsh net-autostart vmr

Unfortunately the virsh commands fail because it seems it is not possible to 
start libvirtd and afaict virsh requires libvirtd.

Anyone have any suggestions how to make this work?

Thanks!

Regards,
Patrick
