Thread-topic: Issue creating client - Xen 3 on Redhat Ent 5 server
Kernel 2.6.18-53.el5xen
Xen xen-3.0.3-41.el5

I'm getting the following error when trying to create a client from an
ISO image. Any ideas?

$ sudo /usr/sbin/virt-install --name freserver --ram 256 --file
/storage/zen/freserver.img --location
/storage/rhel-5.1-server-i386-dvd.iso
Password:
Would you like to enable graphics support? (yes or no) no


Starting install...
