Use this if you are away from Dom0, e.g., you are connecting to it via SSH.

Install vnc connect fedora install#
As such, the install location will be /dev/vg_f17/f16:ĪCTIVE '/dev/vg_f17/f16' inherit We will create a 20GB logical volume named "f16" inside the volume group called "vg_f17". Let's now create a new logical volume to be used as the virtual disk for the DomU. It is all just a matter of finding out the package names your favorite distro ships virt-install with. If Dom0 is not Fedora(-ish), it shouldn't be a bit deal.

On a Fedora Dom0, just run the following and let yum do his job: Preparing for the Installation Getting virt-install However, the same technique should work for installing Fedora/RHEL/CentOS, as well as other (not necessarily RH-based) distros as DomUs. NOTE: in this example we will install a Fedora 16 DomU onto a Fedora 17 Dom0. This is normally done for installing a guest on a remote systems (e.g., reached via SSH). text-based, by using the emulated serial port, where you get the console-mode installation experience.This is usually used if for local installs, i.e., installing a guest while being in front of the host machine graphical, by using VNC, where you get the normal install experience.Virt-install has two modes of installation:

Virt-install is part of the Virtual Machine Manager, a RedHat sponsored project to create, install and manage virtual machines such as, for instance Xen DomUs or KVM guests.
