 Hi,

 Following instructions here

 for 64 bit Ubuntu 10.04

 apt-get install bcc bin86 gawk bridge-utils iproute libcurl3

 apt-get install gcc-multilib
 apt-get install xz-utils

 make xen
 make tools
 make install-xen
 make install-tools PYTHON_PREFIX_ARG=

 I did not do  make install-stubdom.



 It is a Ubuntu Desktop 10.04 amd64 bit version.
 Then as  mentioned here on this guide
 http://bderzhavets.wordpress.com/2010/03/26/virst-installvirt-manager-at-xen-4-0-rc8-2-6-32-10-pvops-dom0-on-top-ubuntu-karmic-koala-server/
 (I did not follow the above guide strictly)

 Commented out (xend-unix-server yes) in  /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp  ,
 here is my xend-config.sxp
 http://pastebin.com/M8CfrqBc
 Then  exported variable   VIRSH_DEFAULT_CONNECT_URI=”xen:///”
 in root’s .bashrc.
 Then :-
 # apt-get install ubuntu-virt-server ubuntu-virt-mgmt

 Now when I open virt-manager the option to install from Local ISO or
 PXE are greyed out.
 virt-manager version is 0.8.2


 Let me know if there is any possibility of improvement so that I can
 get the option of install from Local ISO here.
 Even in case of http install from local machine things did not worked.
 Let me know what log you people would like to see to understand this
 problem as I right now do not have any clue for this problem for
 virt-manager.


Tried the command line also

virt-install -n LucidPVG -r 512 --paravirt --vnc -f /dev/sda9 -c

I am already running a Ubuntu server cloud on a VT machine using KVM.
My purpose of this experiment is to create a cloud  on a non VT
hardware so using Xen.
But the above errors are getting a bit difficult to trace.
Let me know if I any one has some suggestions here.As why can I not
create PV guests
from ISO of 32 bit lucid on a host which is also lucid 64 bit.
To have a 64 bit guest on 64 bit host VT is must but here I am trying
to create 32 bit guest on 64 bit host and that too
a PV guest.
