I've successfully installed SL7 into a VM on SL6.5 via virt-manager
several times using all the Beta media - kickstart and non-kickstart.

Yesterday (25 July) I tried to install SL7 as a guest vm on a 6.5 host system
(install over network from the os subdirectory using an official mirror). I
could proceed up to the message „creating domain …“ (and the new domain was
added to the domain list in virt-manager). The vnc window opened, a message
alike „connecting ….“ appeared and than the window got black and empty.
Virt-manager indicated some activity for the domain, but after several seconds
all activities ceased, nothing happened anymore. When I moved the mouse pointer
over that black window, the pointer disappeared (for the first seconds I could
move the mouse pointer over that black window).
I repeated the very same procedure with 6.5 and everything installed just fine.
So I hope I didn’t made a silly mistake.
Could anybody successfully install SL 7 as a guest VM?
