Hi Konrad,
have tried now - but not with lvm (actually I have no lvm group here and
I do not want to lvm one complete drive) but with direct assigning a
partition. /dev/sdb is 80GB big.
two tries:
1st one:
virt-install --prompt
Would you like a fully virtualized guest (yes or no)? This will allow
you to run unmodified operating systems. yes
What is the name of your virtual machine? test
How much RAM should be allocated (in megabytes)? 256
What would you like to use as the disk (file path)? /dev/sdb3
What is the install CD-ROM/ISO or URL?
/home/GWAY-4.2.15-037-BarracudaNG.iso
Machine stuck, in qemu I could see after recognizing ata0 as 80GB qemu
harddisc, after some time the ata1 as virtual DVD. again after some
while I could see the iso bootscreen and machine was back until pressing
enter for further booting.
2nd one: to avoid file-command for iso-file:
virt-install --prompt

After downloading boot-images machine stuck, in qemu I could see again
ata0 as 80GB harddisc, after some time it tried to boot but could not
find any bootable devices.
I've attached again xm dmesg and dom0 dmesg.
Thanks for your effords.
best regards
Alois

Not only the initialisation is slow, also further I/O stalls the dom0.
This is an Intel 945GM/E chipset, with an IDE-CF-Card as / (ext3)
filesystem and an IDE-2.5" hardisk (/home, ext4). IDE-CF-card is
slower, only able to read/write about 35MBytes/second, the 2.5" HDD
is at about 55MBytes/sec.
Both, the ISO-image and the virtual harddisk are on the /home
directory and therefore on the harddisk.
Is there maybe an I/O problem? Dom0 is able to do everysth. like
usual on all filesystems, both disks are without errors.
Perhaps? Not sure. Can you put your guest image on an LVM (logical
volume) or a disk partition instead of a file?
