as a test to warm up for a virt seminar i still plan on giving, i tried to install f11 x86_64 inside of f11 x86_64. i got as far as the graphical fedora screen, at which point the install hung. and now, i can't get rid of that VM.
since i figure i pooched the install anyway (probably should have selected the basic video driver), i'm trying to simply delete any traces of that VM, but i can't. the VMM "Edit"'s dropdown menu has the "Delete Virtual Machine" selection greyed out. no matter what i do, when i restart the VMM, there's my "f1164" VM, no matter how hard i try to get rid of it.
so what are my options?

p.s. i did the above with no loaded HW extension modules, just to see the effect. not sure if that makes a difference.

The VM needs to be shutoff before virt-manager allows deleting it. Right click the VM row, select Shut Down -> Force Off.
