I launch virt-install and everything seems to go fine. It boots the Centos ISO and drops me at the language screen. I select the language and then get to the "installation method" menu.
At this point, I'm stuck. I was expecting either the "local CDROM" or "Hard Drive" choices to find the original iso somewhere, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Local CDROM dumps me at "No Driver Found" and "Hard Drive" complains that I "don't seem to have any hard drives". I had the same issue with the jailtime image. It wants something from which to install, yet I can't seem to force anything to mount. I tried a couple of different things to try to get that stupid iso mounted somewhere in the DomU, but nothing seems to work. Any suggestions? bash-3.2# uname -a SunOS s0 5.11 snv_87 i86pc i386 i86xpv This is what the session starts off with: bash-3.2# virt-install Would you like a fully virtualized guest (yes or no)?
