Vanishing Harddisk

Hello All, I hope some one can help me. I have xen running on Fedora Core 6, now
when I try to add a guest os using virt-manager there are no hard disks
detected. the whole process goes fine until I have to pick a partition for
installation. I tried using both a file as avirtual disk and also a partition,
in both cases I come to stop because no hard disks or partitions are selected.

Run through the install again, and when you get to the partition stage of the
install, take a copy of /root/.virt-manager/virt-manager.log  and also
the /etc/xen/<domain name>  config file & post it to the list. Alternatively
create a BZ report for the issue attaching those two files and the logs
from /var/log/xen

Regards,
Dan.

In
case you are still having this problem - this is most likely due to selinux.
Selinux will only allow (by default) disk images to be in /var/lib/xen. You can
either move your disk images there, adjust selinux, or disable selinux...
