Do you have todo the check in QEMU itself, or is it possible to add a hook into your installation method ? If so, then you could use the virt-inspector tool that comes with libguestfs to probe the install media and/or disk image to detect the operating system type, and then avoid starting QEMU at all if not what was expected Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :|
