I have installed Centos 6.3 recently on bare metal (as dual boot with win 7) and want to access the existing NTFS through XP Guest.

Let me see if I understood your problem statement fully/correctly:

1. You have a system with Windows 7 (say sda1) and Centos 6.3 (say sda2) 2. You are booted into CentOS 6.3 and running a Win XP guest in a VM (LKVM?) 3. Now you want to access /dev/sda1 (NTFS) from within the Win XP VM

SELinux is enforcing and VM network is NAT.

Google confused me more that educating me -- maybe I could not cobble up the right phrase.

Any help appreciated.

How are you starting the VM? CLI or virt-manager.
