Hello,
The solution is to fix the configuration. Just delete the line

Then restart the libvirt, and set the boot order from cdrom.
Thank you.

I don't have to upgrade to Lucid. Hardy is still supported. I downgraded
(reinstalled) the server from Lucid to hardy to test stability of some
failing virtual machines. At first sight, they are stable, but I
couldn't use virt-manager to generate the configuration. I used the
