OK. I'd got the impression that 'virsh autostart' used to work but didn't any more. Obviously I got it backwards. I'm like that with time. ;-S ... > To enable it today (with the guest shutdown), > xm list -l <guest> > /tmp/myguest.sxp > In myguest.sxp, change on_xend_start from ignore to start.

OK, so it IS still the configuration file bit; you just have to be trickier with where the configuration file is.

So I noticed, but by that time I didn't want to go back and re-install b108. We'll see whether a future build changes my mind. ;-) But my point was - this is one of the, OK not first, but second or third things people programming with shell variables are supposed to learn.

I'll look for post-install stuff: I saw some somewhere and maybe that's it. Yes, my memory is of the documented post-install stuff asking for a keyboard language/type, now that you mention it.
