You would need to change permissions on that directory from 0700 to 0701 to use an ISO there. The "right" fix, though, would be to copy the ISO file to /var/lib/libvirt/images/ ------------------------------------------------ Gordan, I appreciate your admonition about selinux and the protectioin levels of the directories. As soon as I discovered that these aspects were not the issues, I changed them back to the original values. The location of the iso image in /var/lib/libvirt/images/ directory fixed the problem and allowed me to proceed with my laboratory development. Thank you very much. After knowing the importance of the location of the iso image files, I re-read the tutorials and I could not identify this piece of information, hopefully this thread will help others that are newbies with kvm.
