[CentOS-virt] shut down a Centos 6 guest / libvirt / ACPI

[Michael Kress]

Hi, shutting down a Centos6 kvm guest does not work from outside doing a 
'virsh shutdown vmguest', I've installed the
CentOS-6.2-x86_64-minimal.iso
inside the kvm guest

I reckon this is related to acpi ...

# dmesg | grep ACPI
ACPI Error: A valid RSDP was not found (20090903/tbxfroot-219)

pnp: PnP ACPI: disabled
