I'm working on setting up Win7 on QEMU on my Ubuntu MATE 16.04 machine.
(I have a legal DVD.) I've followed the instructions at:
https://github.com/hpaluch/hpaluch.github.io/wiki/Install-Windows7-on-KVM-Qemu
I got through all the setup stuff and clicked on Begin installation. The
Win7 install started fine, but stopped with this error message:
Error continue install: Cannot access storage file
'/var/lib/libvirt/images/win7-80GB.qcow2' (as uid:64055, gid:133): No
such file or directory
Traceback (most recent call last):

dom=self)
libvirtError: Cannot access storage file
'/var/lib/libvirt/images/win7-80GB.qcow2' (as uid:64055, gid:133): No
such file or directory
/var/lib/libvirt/images exists but is empty. Am I supposed to create
win7-80GB.qcow2 and run the install again? And should it be a file or a
directory?
Has anyone run into this before? It's mostly Greek to me.
Thanks for any advice.
