Here's the procedure: # qemu-img -f qcow2 /vm/win2k3.img 8G # virt-install --connect qemu:///system -n win2k3 -r 512 --vcpus=1 -c /home/temp/win2003sp2ins.iso -f /vm/win2k3.img -s 4 --network=bridge:br0 --mac=00:ff:ff:ff:58:58 --noautoconsole --vnc --os-type=windows --os-variant=win2k3 --hvm --accelerate
And I get error as below: Starting install... internal error unable to start guest: qemu: could not open disk image /vm/win2k3.img Domain installation may not have been successful. If it was, you can restart your domain by running 'virsh start win2k3'; otherwise, please restart your installation.
