Hi Alberto,
Thanks for your advice.

I have only one NIC on the server.

I ran above command direct on the server as root (not remotely on
desktop)
It just hangs there on Xterm.
ubuntu6.06.img is on /root/ubuntu6.06.img
Tried again;
# kvm ubuntu6.06.img -cdrom /dev/scd0 -m 512 -boot d -vnc :0
It also hangs on the Xterm
If without -vnc :0
# kvm ubuntu6.06.img -cdrom /dev/scd0 -m 512 -boot d

I expect clarifying following points;
1) I don't run X on the server. There are no X packages installed.
2) The CD on the CD-Drive is Ubuntu6.06 installer, NOT its iso image
Can I use the above command? TIA
