Just use --os-variant fedora18 for now, it will give the same settings as
fedora19 eventually will.
As an addendum to Cole's above comment:
If it's any useful, here's how I trigger my f19 installs:
===========
virt-install --connect=qemu:///system \
--network=bridge:br0 \
--initrd-inject=/export/fed-minimal.ks \
--extra-args="ks=file:/fed-minimal.ks console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200" \
--name=$domname \
--disk /export/vmimgs/$domname.img,size=20,cache=none \
--ram 2048 \
--vcpus=2 \
--check-cpu \
--accelerate \
--cpuset auto \
--os-type linux \
--os-variant fedora18 \
--hvm \
--location=/path/to/f19/tree \
--nographics
===========
-> contents of fed-minimal.ks
===========
install
text
reboot
lang en_US.UTF-8
keyboard us
network --bootproto dhcp
rootpw testpwd
firewall --enabled --ssh
selinux --enforcing
timezone --utc America/New_York
bootloader --location=mbr --append="console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200
rd_NO_PLYMOUTH"
zerombr
clearpart --all --initlabel
autopart
%packages
@core
%end
===========
I was asked this question a couple of times - If a user doesn't provide --os-variant
the
correct one (for recent Fedoras..), will it screw up their install. Maybe we should note
it somewhere.
Please also file a bug against python-virtinst so we can track adding fedora19
with a future update.
Thanks,
Cole
