Package: virt-manager
Version: 0.5.2-3
Severity: normal
Maybe I'm no doing it “the right way” but I can't create a new vm. I thought
virt-manager was a graphical interface à la vmware-workstation to easily
create vm without wondering how it is done.
So I installed virt-manager, libvirtd-bin, qemu. I started libvirtd, then
virt-manager. It connects correctly to “qemu session” on localhost, so I tried
to create a VM.
First, I can't check the “Use hardware acceleration”, while I have a Core2Duo
wich supports it. Maybe it's a limitation in qemu, I don't know, but couldn't
find information.
Then, when trying a really simple vm (debian etch amd64), I can't select how I
want the network (and I can't create a network if I'm not running as root but
this deserves another bug report, as it doesn't work anyway)
Finally, at the summary step, I try to click “Finish” to create the vm, but
there's a popup saying “Unable to complete install: "NoneType' object has no
attribute 'setup"”
Then details:
Unable to complete install 'exceptions.AttributeError 'NoneType' object has no
attribute 'setup'
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/create.py", line 616, in do_install
dom = guest.start_install(False, meter = meter)
File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/virtinst/Guest.py", line 724, in
start_install
return self._do_install(consolecb, meter)

File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/virtinst/Guest.py", line 644, in
_create_devices
nic.setup(self.conn)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'setup'
'
And I can't do anything else then canceling creation.
Cheers,

Ok, sorry for the long delay. Segfault seems fixed, I can now create a
vm running as user. I had to setup a bridge for direct networking but it
seems to work. Is that normal that the kvm instance runs as root, btw?
And I'm trying to boot using PXE, the dhcp client manage to acquire an
address but then I'm requested to press F12 to continue, and I cant.
Pressing F12 doesn't do anything, so I can't netboot. I didn't find
anything on this, so I don't know how to fix this. Maybe it's worth
another bug report.
Cheers,
