[Spacewalk-list] VM hangs during provisioning

Hi,

>From what I saw, Xen default settings disable vfb:
http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_3.x_Configuration_File_Options
So I assume Spacewalk is sending provisioning commands with vfb, but I
can't see any reference in site-packages folder (where are stored
virt-install and spacewalk Python scripts).
I'm stuck because if there is an error during VM provisioning, I can't see
the error.

I would greatly appreciate any help you can give me in working this problem.

Florian
