My question: am I doing something stupid? But I figured "They're all the same system, this must work"
I don't want to play around with it too much as the server is also our file-server and people start complaining.
So any hint will be greatly appreciated (otherwise I'll have to setup another machine for the guests)
Can't help with figuring out the virt-manager problem. My first steps with Xen where with virt-manager, but that's been a long time ago (and it worked fine back then). I haven't looked at it since then. You simply don't need it, usually you don't want to run any X on a server.
virt-install works fine, is command-line and you can either have it ask for all the parameters or you can provide all of them, so it's a "one command" installation.
