Both are after the successful install. I didn't capture the failed install 
command.

The first one doesn't look like it's for the actual install, but after that.  I 
don't see anything pointing to your installation kernel, initrd, or ISO image 
(or otherwise).

It would be interesting to see what qemu command gets generated via 
virt-manager versus virt-install.

I found the problem disappeared when I changed location from the
loop-mounted ISO image to the URL of the ClefOS download site. Things are
installing as expected.

Re: virt-install

2017-08-04 Thread Neale Ferguson
I changed over to virt-manager and defined the guest there. It came up
first time. 

qemu-2.9.0-8
libvirt-2.2.0-1



I will attempt the other method with the option recommended.

Hard to tell from afar ... could you try to run virt-install with
"--print-step all" (not sure which one to use in this case) and post the
resulting domain XML?
What versions of qemu and libvirt are you using?
