Hello:
I am using kvm on a CentOS 5.4 server.
I am trying to install the TunkeyLinux Core appliance
found here: http://www.turnkeylinux.org/core
I downloaded the ISO file from the web site.
Then, I used this command to intall it:
virt-install -n tkl-core -r 512 --vcpus=1 --check-cpu --os-type=linux
--os-variant=ubuntuhardy -v --accelerate
-c /tmp/turnkey-core-2009.10-hardy-x86.iso
-f /var/lib/libvirt/images/tkl-core.img -s 15 -b br0 --vnc noautoconsole
When I connect to the VNC console, I get the Turnkey linux
options screen.
I select Install to hard disk from there and it seems to
start the install but crashes during the installer startup.
This is repeatable so there has to be a way to debug it.
I tried turning on the debug option for virt-install but that
did not give me any useful info.
Any ideas how to debug this?
Thanks,
Neil

Hi all,
There's currently MR [1] on review with changes making the packing
layout more close to fedora. This change unfortunately causes users
using qemu-kvm-core package (not qemu-kvm) to lose some functionality
as some submodules will be moved to separate packages so anyone using
these features has to install such package in addition to
qemu-kvm-core package. This change won't affect qemu-kvm usage as this
package will keep these packages as dependency.
These changes are going to be submitted soon so anyone using CentOS 9
Streams qemu-kvm-core package should check whether the functionality
is still provided by core package after the change or additional
subpackage is needed.

I have been building up a script to quickly and easily make CentOS/RHEL
and Fedora VMs from kickstart files for a long time, and thought I'd see
if anyone else was interested. It's especially useful IMHO if you are
working on building kickstarts, because you can fairly rapidly iterate
and test.
I've got it built as an RPM, so if others think this is useful, I might
submit it to Fedora and EPEL.
Let me know what you think!
