While doing this, I have hit some snags related to areas in which pure Xen documentation no longer applies due to the presence of lib-virt et al.First a minor comment on the Fedora8VirtQuickStart (draft I know): The section:Building a Fedora Guest System using `virt-manager`no longer applies because between Fedora 7 and Fedora 8 there no longer appears to be a "New" button or a "File New" option in virt-manager. It would appear that the only way to create a DomU is by way of virt-install.The doc needs updating. I did some updating this weekend. The button is not as obvious now but it is still there (you have to right-click on the hypervisor to see the "New" option. I'm not sure why this changed, but I have updated that bit.That's bizarre. According to the web site, you employed "UI Interface Designers."I think you need new designers, that's far from intuitive.
Lucky for us they are happy to take suggestions and improve!Figured this out - They had to remove the global new button, because the UI now allows multiple hypervisor connections. So you need to be able to have a new button that is linked to a specific connection. The button is now there for each hypervisor on the right side. I didn't see the button before. If you right-click, that's a second way to access it. I don't think it will be too hard to make the button more obvious.
