Please let me know.
Doh, yes, something trivial indeed. At least here on lucid, the vm gets placed inside $CWD/ubuntu.kvm. That is, the second vmbuilder argument + '.' + the first argument. You used the same for both When you run the command a second time, it deletes that directory and creates a new one! So, my recommendation: mkdir vm1; cd vm1; (first_vmbuilder_command); cd .. mkdir vm2; cd vm2; (second_vmbuilder_command); cd ..
