I am installing FC-11 guest on Fedora 11 Machine via virt-install as follows

bash# virt-install -n shu -r 2000  -l /root/Fedora-11-x86_64-DVD.iso --accelerate --os-type=linux -f /dev/vmdata/vm1.root -x console=ttyS0 --nographics --hvm

Everything goes fine and until i reached to disk partition step where i find no custom layout option

Experts are requested to help and see what's going wrong with me. I created the same guest for FC10 but its not working in FC11. 

More over it dont ask for any software packages and just do standard installation. what to do to have custom package installer.

Regards, Mateen
